I have to agree with the other commenters. There’s no doubt some people who are going to laugh at your stutter. That idea used to really bother me too, but you have to remind yourself that in the grand scheme of things, it’s not really a big deal. It’s only a big deal if you let it consume you. The best thing you can do for your mental health and happiness is to just shake it off and laugh with them. And as a bonus, having a sense of humor about your disability is a majorly awesome look on you. People respect that. Love yourself, all of yourself, and don’t spend so much time worrying about this stuff!
