I tell myself every day "Who Cares if I stutter. If I block, I'll stop breathe and carry on. I know I am FRICKIN AWESOME. " Also, people aren't thinking about your stutter like you think they are. I'm living my life on my terms, I no longer care what people think of my stutter. If you tease/mock me, that is ON YOU, NOT ME ! I know that I am AWESOME. For me, it's OK to stutter. I stopped fighting it and just embraced it. Once I embraced it, a while new world opened up. I'm happier now, less stressed and I'm finally living my life.
