You're not alone man. I'm currently 18 and all my life was shaped because of my stuttering. I start stuttering when I was... well, when I was born because I stuttered for a long ass time now, I don't...

For me, my stutter is about equal when I speak English vs. Spanish, but it's 10x worse when I'm speaking Chinese. It sucks because my Chinese is already pretty bad (I'm Chinese-American), so when I tr...
