Hundred percent agree because I had a speech impediment as a child and all that trauma of being bullied because I couldn’t say my name really affected me. I’m now a grown woman and I am in school I do well but I have it in the back of the brain I cant speak correctly. I always think oh well people just think I’m stupid or I’m not as competent as my other classmates. 50 people could tell me you’re so smart you’re so intelligent but at the end of the day that bullying I endured as a child has much more of an impact on me. I definitely think my stutter has worsened because my anxiety has gotten up.
