DAE feel frustrated when you feel you’re being ignored? I noticed I have this really big pet-peeve where I don’t like being ignored. When I was a kid, I used to literally break down and cry if I told someone something and I felt like they weren’t paying attention or misunderstood what I said. Even when I’m not stuttering in that moment, just having to repeat myself to people really irritates me for some reason. It’s like I work so hard to talk, how dare you *not* understand or pay attention to me during my moments of fluency? /j I’m just curious if some of you feel this way as well or if this is just a personal issue of mine?
