Put it this way, i’m sure we all have had the most fucking depressing and shitty experiences due to our stutter, there was even a period where I used to cry myself to sleep. I really empathise with you. Younger me got the most painful experiences, but after years you realise it’s who you are, it’s shit that that’s the cards we’ve been dealt with, but what’s worse than staying miserable about it all your life? There’s more to life than our speech, hell, even if you got 1 friend who truly understands you then you’re basically the luckiest person on earth My point was that it’s good practice to be grateful, it really helps, but that doesn’t undermine the difficulty of our disorder in any way shape or form. I agree, we should also try to do some things about it. So far i’m seeing there’s nothing about preventing the stutter itself, but it’s all about working ways around it. I’m sure there’s also a ton of ways to work without having to speak as much.
