If I can control my stutter I'm scared too I managed to bring out my first full sentence without stuttering to my mom and I said in reply to something she said. "They weren't as good as the first time especially the jalapeños" and immediately after I could only think about the stuff I would he saying with out. For that 2 second sentence I felt free. The load got off my chest for 2 seconds. I felt o could breath for 2 seconds. Its not fair. People don't understand what a privilege it is to talk.
