Me(20F). It’s not as severe but it sure gets embarrassing sometimes. I’d be having a normally conversation with my friends or family and I’d start stuttering. It’s frustrating cause sometimes I can’t even say my name properly. I remember this one time I stuttered saying my name & my professor said, “oh you forgot your own name?”, and everyone started laughing. There was also a time in school when my friends mocked my stutter & made fun of it. It’s definitely better i think, and i try not to overthink on it. I sometimes get scared but then again, it’s not something that defines me or my personality. I perform good in academics and work on my enhancing my abilities.
