As someone who's had a severe stutter for the past 5 years, since puberty, it's not a kind of disability you should be proud of, at the same time you shouldn't be ashamed of it, it's something you can't control, so you have to own it, but instead of just accepting it for street cred, you should work on trying to improve it, because it is cureable, I'd suggest getting this app, Stopstutter and look this author up, "Lee G Lovett", he has written some incredible books on how to overcome stuttering, one of my favourite ones are "how to stop stuttering and love speaking", among other books, go read them they're really helpful. I agree with the sentiment of this post, but I wouldn't just accept stuttering as my fate now, as I had been for the past 5 years, it's time to make a positive change.
