Look i dont know how to tell you that im still young im in my 20s, i dont have all the wisdom in that world, i was really ashamed of that as you feel it now too probably. For me i would not say that i overcomed that well not 100% i dont know if i will ever be able to. All i can say is that it does not bother me as mutch as it used to. Im independant male working and earning my own bread so who are other people to judge me? But yes i haclve come to a point where i partly accepted it, it is a part of me im not ashamed as i was im still uncomftable at some point but ok im not taking that to my heart anymore. And belive me you are showimg there having presentations, most of the people dont have balls to do that. Belive me you will be ok good people will acept you as you are belive me, the others that make fun of you they are the type of people with 0 compasion for another human beings, they dont belong into your life, f them :) belive me stuttering is just a faster way to detect bad people and thats a +for me. You will be ok lift your head up and go on. And one more thing, you are worth it. I used to think that im not that no woman would want me but i was so wrong they really dont care abouth that i had a few and now im in relationship with one beautiful lady :) so yes what i am trying to say is that maybe we create wrong picture about our life that we are not worth of as you said friends in my case girlfriend, but later on you will see that stutterimg does nkt define you, that your insecurities were wrong. In most cases people really dont care abouth that they have their own problems in their life. The most important rhing is to have a big heart wich i belive people with stutter have because we know what compasion is. Maybe after all it is eaven not that bad thing. It depends od the perspective you are looking on it. Keep your head on forget that you have it just stutter and tell what you wanna tell they ll wait ;) head up king you got this. ;)
