I really think we stutteres need to give less of a fuck. No need to fit in. Do what you do and take minutes or longer to say what you want to say. Be open about the fact that you stutter and that’s it. Fuck all these people that have no idea what it means to carry such a burden. Be authentic. Be persistent. I swear, on Instagram you have this guy called sam_bagshaw_. Look at him. He has severe blocks but he keeps on rolling. Don’t define your selfworth based on your fluency and on how others perceive you, who have 0 ideas and are uneducated about the fact. I studied mathematics and got my masters with a huge stuttering problem. There were talks I had to give where I struggled hard. But I got through. Practice often, but don’t be apologetic.
