I stuttered all thoughout high school and some of college and i always hated it. Always thought that i wasnt good enough and why the fuck out of all the disablities in the world i have to have the one where i cant even communicate. That was my thinking and it got me nowhere. Then one day i had a long hard look in the mirror and said to myself stop feeling sorry for myself and do something about it. I started putting myself out there and stopped caring about what people thought of me if i stuttered. Its part of me why hide it. After i got the part of it i almost stopped completely. The social rejection is a big part of why i stuttered it made me nervous which made me stutter even more. After i was like i dont give a fuck what you think i wasnt nervous which made me stutter less. I eventually joined the military and tried out for special forces. I didnt make it but not because of my stutter but because SP is fucking hard lol. Anyway that was a huge accomplishment in my life going from not being a read shakespeare in 10th grade out loud to enduring 2 months of some of the hardest training in the world. Moral of the story it is possible to overcome your stutter and make something of yourself and to achieve alot. You just have to persevere and accept yourself for who you are. Then the world my friend :)
