My mom asked me if I was faking my stutter? Okay…so I’ve stuttered all my life. My parents know that, they were the ones who had me in Speech therapy for years. Lately, my stutter has been really bad. A lot to do with stress and anxiety I’m having about starting school in a few weeks. Also, I think the meds I started a few months ago has also added to my stutter being worse than normal. I was talking to my mom today and she asked me if I was faking my stutter? And I was like…no? The hell? How would y’all react to this?
