Acceptance is the hardest thing to get your head around, it absolutely sucks ass and stresses me out constantly. Although there are things you can do to work on it. You’re not just your stutter, you have a personality outside of your speech patterns. So work on that find something you love doing and do it more. I know I’m sounding preachy, but I used to get myself in a right dark place worrying about if I stuttered. When it happens now I just look past it, I used to stutter talking to a postman or at appointments and I’d think about for days upon days. People can be cruel but they are cruel whether you have a stutter or not, we are all warriors for constantly fighting every single day and still having the courage to turn up. Keep going guys.
