While I was being born the umbilical cord somehow got wrapped around my neck. I was loosing oxygen(hypoxia) and blood to my brain, as the doctor tried to yank me out with forceps. I was also slamming my head against my carrier’s tailbone/pelvis while being strangled by the umbilical cord. This had to cause some brain injury or injuries. Trouble with speech and motor skills, as a toddler, is a top sign of brain injury during birth. So this is my theory to why I stutter and to give my opinion to the question in the title. I think it can be connected to brain injury or damage. I also was intensely bullied all through life. I refused to speak during most of my middle school and all of my high school years. I think this may have stunted my communication skills. I don’t know how to be when communicating and socializing, mainly speaking. I can’t grasp a concept of talking and verbal communication. The intricacies of socialization and people.It just seems so foreign and my brain will never be able to understand it. I have untreated adhd. I randomly loose thoughts or a word that I was going to say or a topic to bring up. I get very confused easily. Especially when focusing and concentrating or trying to learn something from someone. My executive function is almost nonexistent. I didn’t have any problems with any subjects in scroll. I did pretty well and was able to attend college. I went as far as I could go educationally without student loans or having parents that were able to pay for it.
