Stuttering? You care more than anyone other
Content
Stuttering? You care more than anyone other I just wanted to briefly describe my experience here, which has made my everyday life with my stuttering much easier. Namely, the fact that no one cares whether you have stuttered or not. It is you who stutters, not them. And you don't have to be embarrassed about it. No matter what the person might think, they will have forgotten you in a few days anyway. No matter how strong your stutter was at that moment. ​ Once I internalised that, I almost completely lost my fear of all conversations. ​ Have you had similar experiences?
