When i was 17 I went to a clinic in Virginia where I went through therapy with 11 other people with a stutter. I got to talk to them a healthy amount. It was the first time I'd ever met people in person who had a stutter like I did, and I haven't met anyone else with a stutter since then, 3 years later. No one else in my family has a stutter, so I've always felt alone with it. I'm still waiting and hoping for the day that I'll meet someone around where I live who also has a stutter!!
