I’ve been stuttering since I could talk I’m 28 now. People say it gets better or it goes away. But it hasn’t I just learned how to accept it. Life is significantly harder, harder to get a job, harder to get into relationships. I’ve always felt like without my stutter I’d be much more successful. But that just makes our achievements that much more rewarding. People will look down on you, pity you, think you’re dumb but don’t let it consume you. Always Remember we’re the normal ones, people who could talk perfectly are the weird ones. You got a community here who knows how hard it is but are still strong enough to fight it.
