The way I see it, is that I know I'm not the first person to go through this, nor will I be the last. Everything you're going through right now, someone else has endured it and surpassed that obstacle. It's been done before, it can be done again. When I'm feeling down on myself about my stutter, or really any of my shortcomings, it always helps to know that someone else has gone through the very same issue I'm going through, and others have gone through much worse.
