I’m 36 years old. Life long studder. I don’t have time to care about it anymore. I didn’t even have my first real job until a year ago because I was so afraid of what people would think or the types of jobs I could or couldn’t have. I applied for shitty maintenance or janitorial because I didn’t think I was worth more than that. I said fuck it. If people laugh or stare or whatever I don’t give a damn anymore. I have a studder and always will. But you know what? My daughter doesn’t. My coworkers and husband ignore it. My friends ignore it. It turns out most people don’t give a shit about it. So I don’t anymore
