Just deal with it and move on with your life, it’s not worth staying pissed off and not talk to anyone and ruin your life just because your speech is a little fucked. I have a severe stutter but have tons of friends, love meeting new people, and am about to be get married soon. If all depends on how you make your life, I use to stay frustrated about it and let if define who I was and my speech therapist in highschool helped me to realize that stuttering isn’t who I am. If people don’t like your stutter and can’t deal with it, fuck them. “Don’t waste your good speech on people who don’t care about it.” My therapist told me this and it changed my outlook on my stutter. I don’t care what anything thinks about me and stutter.
