When I was forced to read a paragraph in school. I stuttered on every word. I didn’t/couldn’t finish, teacher asked someone else to read. I was seated against the wall, and looked toward it and just cried silently. Students adjacent to me, and later on the teacher too, said it was ok, that I did good, mother fucker no I didn’t. I stuttered on every word. I get what they were trying to do, but come on. Another time, a few years later, was when I was trying to order food for myself and same thing happened. I never wanted to leave or phase out of existence so bad before
