Bro I deal with the same thing. I’m 23. I’m just now realizing that people who don’t understand or are just immature are just gonna treat us like that. And I used to just feel so bad about myself, embarrassed, I still do. And it makes me soo fucking mad. Like I can even tell some of my family sees me as slow. They’ve never verbally said it, but it was by their actions and how they talked to me and treated me sometimes. Then one day I was like, “why do I get mad?” Like I already expected them to, so why get mad or feel sad. Don’t live against my stutter and live with it. Like I’m still hyper aware of peoples reactions and facial expressions, and sometimes I still get mad and sad🤦🏽🤷🏽
