My sense of humor takes big blows I’m naturally a quick-witted and sarcastic person and I love to argue and joke around. My stutter obstructs around 70% of my sense of humor and charisma, and it’s extremely draining to have to acknowledge that fact every single day. The times I don’t stutter, I am quite quick-witted and charismatic and people don’t expect that of me. I don’t know what to do about this and I don’t think anyone really knows. But I’m just posting this so you guys, people who know what it’s like to struggle like this every day and somehow make it through every time.
