Stuttering and Victim Mentality Hi all, I made a video about the unfortunate trend I see of some stutterers living in a victim mentality, just as I used to. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFOIZkh4bVg The harsh truth I needed growing up was that I was using my stutter as an excuse not to challenge myself. There are still many ways I am discovering myself and feeling out what is true and what is an excuse, so I certainly don't mean to come off as any more enlightened than anyone. I would be interested in knowing what you think. Thank you!
