I feel you man as someone also with a severe stutter and diagnosed ADHD and depression. I haven’t encountered too many of the ‘I stutter too’ crowd but plenty of people who ‘used to stutter when young’. I don’t particularly find such comments helpful as i feel they have a condescending undertone implying that I should have grown out of it by now. With ADHD, I do believe the condition is somewhat glamorised nowadays but only by those who think they have it but don’t. It’s a seriously debilitating condition that I wouldn’t wish on anyone.
