Thank you so much for your kind words. I relate to what you said I feel bad and weak when I hide away from challenges. One of my teachers knows about my stutter because in the first day of school the teacher made us read some stuffs out loud and I got stuck so I told her I didn’t feel comfortable reading out loud. Now whenever she makes people read out loud she skips me, and it gives me a sense of relief and shame in those moments I feel inferior to my peers. I know hiding away will only make my stutter worse because I remember a year ago my stutter was much less severe and I’d put my hand up in class to answer questions and I’d even volunteer to read but all that seems so unreachable anymore. Ps sorry for the long rant.
