Rant This is really the first time I’ve ever talked about my stutter. I’ve been stuttering my whole life but when I was a kid it wasn’t that bad and I didn’t care if my friends mocked me. I was very outgoing class clown typa kid always getting in trouble but when Covid hit I pretty much forgot how to talk I started to notice the stutter way more and it kept getting worse. The most trouble I have now is if I’m starting the conversation and especially with my name to the point were I’ll use a fake name just so I don’t stutter like at restaurants if they ask for the name I’ll say like Batman or some funny name. And my friends/ family have never brought up my stutter so it makes me feel more awkward when I get a bad stutter and it’s caused me to push myself away from a lot of my family I used to be around 24/7. I just wish I had someone to talk to about this but I just feel so weird to bring it up because they really don’t know how much this hurts me.
