Stutterer. Ever since I was little, I stutter. It bothers me so much. I often avoid calls, which makes me feel even worse because I know the non-confrontational behaviour won’t help in the long run, I have to be brave and face it. Stutter over my name, my school’s name, and other things. It sucks when I get that, “oh haha you don’t know your own name?/you forgot your own name?” Thought it’d go away as I grew up but, I’m old enough (18) and it sticks.
