Zero to 100 Hello fellow stutters. I’m wondering if many others have a similar stutter to me. When I meet someone new I have almost no stutter, I’ll maybe stumble on a few words here and there but it’s almost unnoticeable. My friends and work colleagues know me as a stutterer but it comes and goes, I can hold conversation but will stutter frequently. Around my family however, it is severe, every word is a struggle and I can’t control it at all. I get asked all the time what triggers it, I’m 28 now and it seems the more comfortable I am around people the less I can control my stutter and it just becomes a big ol’ mess. I feel like nervousness is a common trigger but my situation is the opposite. I’ve learned to be grateful for my stutter, I’ve had times where I would beat myself up over it, but I’m content knowing that my stutter is one of the many parts of who I am.
