I stopped caring what people thought about my stammer and just accepted its a part of my identity. I stopped letting this one aspect of myself hold back everything else I had to offer the world. Once I did that, my life changed. My stammer lessened and people didn't care if it came out because I owned it and didn't let it bother me. If you're not bothered, other people won't be as well. And the people who do care, you don't need them in your life.
