I’ve had the stutter for as long as I can remember. I mostly stutter when I’m anxious or on certain words like my name and job title. It’s easier for me to speak to my family and close friends. I don’t stutter alone or on ai. It’s frustrating attempting to say a certain word and not being able to and if I’m ordering food I often feel judged or looked down upon for my lack of fluency.
