What is your biggest fear for something to happen as a stutterer I have two. Mine is going to a country that speaks a different language and trying to speak to someone but I am stuttering, but it might sound like I’m saying a slur or calling them a name and they will get mad. Or people seeing it as a curse and will avoid me. Another one is someone thinking I’m calling them the N word because I’m stuttering on a word that begins with the letter N. (I’m black but still)
