I completely agree with you and it's one of my biggest insecurities as well as being made fun of. At work I worry a lot about how I'm perceived and what others think of my stutter and my abilities because of it. My worst fear is being seen as incompetent and I think my stutter is a reason for this mindset. I also don't like it when I'm made fun of, but to clear it up I don't mean having "banter" or joking around but when I feel like I'm being targeted, which I'm sure is due to my childhood and my experiences through school which has conditioned me in a way. I'm 23 and these are the two things I probably worry about daily. If you ever want to chat, send me a message!
