Yeah, I get that you’re trying to push people to take responsibility and not let their stutter define them and that’s a valid message. But honestly, the tone here comes off a bit dismissive of how deeply this struggle can affect someone. For a lot of people, the “bad attitude” you’re describing doesn’t come from laziness, it comes from years of rejection, bullying, and isolation. When you’ve been laughed at for something you can’t control, it’s not easy to just “fix your mindset” overnight. That pain shapes how you see yourself and the world. Encouraging people to take action is great, but blaming them for their suffering isn’t fair or helpful. Healing starts with compassion, not shame. People need to feel understood before they can change otherwise posts like this just make them shut down even more. You’ve got a powerful story and an important point about taking ownership, but it would land a lot better if it came with a bit more empathy for those still stuck in the dark part of the journey.
