i remember there was a time i went to an after school club, when i was 10, and they would ask us if we want toast with butter or jam, or a cookie, i then answered and said “butter and j-j-jam please” then there was a kid there that mocked me and laughed, and i heard it and felt embarrassed, then after that day when the adults would ask what we wanted, I would always say “ i’m not hungry” (when i was literally starving) because I felt fear that I would stutter again. That’s probably where my insecurities started lol …
