I’m 23F the only one in the family who has a stutter. It’s mild I’d say I’ve always stuttered here and there but for many years I was actually fine! Senior year I moved to a different school and became friends with a girl who has a stutter as well but for her it was severe. I’m not going to blame her she’s an absolute angel I love her! But I did notice my stutter became worse from then on. I notice I stutter more when I’m talking and I feel all eyes on me. I start thinking about how they’re listening to ME and somewhere along the conversation I stutter I hate it.
