What kind of things do you mean? Like coping mechanisms? I’m sorry people are blaming you for not achieving as much because of your stutter… they really just don’t know what it’s like. It’s an invisible struggle and it can be so frustrating to know that other people can’t see it, and might be judging you. It’s also a good reminder that many people have these invisible struggles and we really shouldn’t judge anyone for the way their lives have turned out. Also I’m really not trying to offer any quick fix, everyone here is on a journey with stuttering. It’s just that sometimes an affirmation may hit someone who really needs it, and it can really help.
