Nope. There are two positive sides: 1 You are utterly frustrated because you cannot express frustration as complexly as someone who does not stutter. So, write it down! Your words on paper are more impactful than what another can say verbally. 2 You make friends more easily. I get that you can be scared of making friends bc of the stuttering, but the people who DO stick around are often a whole lot more earnest and open than those who don’t. I can choose between stuttering or not stuttering, and i have met largely assholes when i was able to speak fluently. You actively avoid those people who really dont care about the impact of their words, and that is a damn good thing.
