I hate my stuttering Hi my name is Jerald, Im 14 years old currently suffering from stutter. I noticed that my stuttering began when i was a kid maybe when i was 4-6 i think. My uncles also have the same stuttering as me but his c are quite unnoticeable. Now im currently on 8th grade and I'm so jealous of the people who can speak fluently without stuttering, Sometimes i get embarrassed when I'm going to introduce myself, participate in class. When i was on 6th grade this isn't really a problem but now im on grade 8th it's really so hard sometimes people laugh and makefun of my condition and i try hard to explain it to some of friends, my teachers but they don't understand me. Im saving up money so i can get checked up soon enough by a speech pathologist. πŸ₯ΊπŸ€žπŸ» If you have any tips how to avoid stuttering please comment them below. πŸ’•
