From my point of view, stuttering is a truth. It is something that exists so I gotta accept it. BUT, it doesn't mean I shouldn't think about it as a bad thing, well I do. It is not ideal, and of course I feel bad about it. How can I not feel bad about it when it has affected my daily life massively. If it was something I couldn't change I would just deal with it, but I sometimes speak better, I have seen some close relatives/friends totally stop stuttering and I wonder why? Is it my fault for not trying hard enough? I just believe I can make it a lot better, not for the sake of others (so they don't label me as a stutterer), but for myself.
