I get completely blocked with words that start with ‘T’ letter I do have a stutter but some words that start with T / S / H make it even worse. Last week I had to take a taxi and because my destination starts with T I got completely blocked and the driver started laughing thinking I am drunk or smth and he went away… I waited for another taxi and the same thing the driver told me to “hey say something” and went away as well… I was so angry that I went home walking ( it took me one hour to get home + I have hyperhidrosis which made it even worse I became soaked) but now I decided to change my destination for another one which starts with the letter M which one of the easiest letters for me… but that means I will have to get another 15 minutes walking. I wonder if this story makes sense I just wanted to share with you I have no one to talk with about that.
