I love saying it bc it’s one of those things where if someone else says it it’s fucked yo but if I say it bc I do it it’s ok so It’s more so me taking their fun away if they say it Example: One time I was working in a restaurant and one of my coworkers were complaining at someone and that phrase came out so I blurted out saying “you probably didn’t but if I was talking I probably would’ve”. It instantly eased the tension in the room everyone laughed and soon after the guy apologized to me even though I wasn’t in the conversation to begin with lol. Being able to joke about your shortcomings takes time and a lot of understanding yourself and how things work. I’m only 23 and have a long ways to go to be fully ok with it but there’s no point to hide something that’s obvious (unfortunately with us our insecurity you can’t really hide) so own it, it’s ok to feel self conscious from time to time my best advice as of rn is for you to remember YOU ARE NOT YOUR STUTTER it’s just tagging along on the ride and when it decides to present itself acknowledge it instead of trying to hide that it didn’t happen then move onto what’s next if someone laughs or something it’s not personal only way something can be personal is if you make it.
