Yeah, it's a constant never-ending torment. Seeing people around you joke and laugh, sharing stories and experiences, while you can't do *any* of it. We are inherently social creatures, and as stutter...

It's not so much that they don't want to listen to you, but that people don't know how. It's almost as annoying listening to someone stutter as it is to stutter yourself. ​ But I sympath...

“For some reason they class it as a disability” Stuttering is in fact a disability. I’m not sure why so many stutterers try to deny it. A stutterer will inevitably face prejudice, social disadvantage...
