You are hella right, I remember when I was little and could speak as much as I wanted without worrying; might be my lack of confidence, but I have yet to accept stuttering as a part of me now. It took away so many opportunities from me and since I'm still young I'm worried excessively about my job interviews that I'm going to have in the future. Stuttering even changed my ways of speaking, as everytime I need/want to speak I always make my phrase as short and direct as possible, making me look lime I don't know any word at all, basically ignorant. Though, it's really funny, but I don't stutter at all whenever I'm nervous. I want to flip the script so much.
