I’m an open stutterer. I feel like I used to be more covert because during childhood my family wasn’t very nice or supportive about it. School was unsupportive as well. Over time I learned to be more ...

I am so thankful for this aspect of stuttering. I am a very opinionated person and impatient person. My stutter has kept me from blurting out things at work that would have caused me no end of problem...
