Submit Something For The Site

If you've got something you want to say about stammering; your story, a poem, a piece of art, or even a rant, we'd love to share it.

Hearing others talk about experiences similar to yours can help you feel less alone. It can bring things into perspective. It's also a powerful way to inspire, encourage and raise awareness of stammering and its impact. 

So, tell us how things are going for you. Whether you stammer, you're a parent, family member, or if you know someone else stammers, we want to hear from you.

Tell us about:

• growing up with a stammer 
• how stammering is impacting you and your life
• stammering at work, or your job hunting experiences
• dating and relationships
• school, college or university 
• your experiences as a parent of a child who stammers
• things you've found helpful 
• any other stammering-related topics, opinions, art, poems, songs, you name it.
