Love all of my stuttering friends on here. Want to make a positive post for the feed :) I love this reddit because it truly is all people going through your struggle. It feels nice to have this community, especially since I seldom see a stutterer day by day. I'm a 21 year old college kid with a severe blocking stutter, and yea it sucks. I sometimes will shut down for 10 seconds at a time. I go through a lot of bad situations daily and have a lot of negative thoughts. At the end of the day though, what a joy it is to be living. Remember, it may not seem like it sometimes, but speaking is such a minute part of the human experience. We have fantastic lives to live and fulfill, it is rather pointless to spend so much of it worrying about how we communicate with others. We're all going to be dead in 100 years, and no one's sure about what comes after that, so why not wake up everyday enjoying the fact that your sperm cell was the 1/300,000,000 to reach the egg lol. If you can, please try not to worry so much about a defect that you have in one small part of the incredible organism that humans have evolved to be. We lose perspective sometimes... trust me it can be a lot worse. There are people who are not even given the chance to live their lives at all. Just wanted to make this post hoping to share some perspective that I have been fortunate to realize, and spread some positivity on the feed that is a lot of negative most of the time. Love all of you.
