When I noticed that I stutter Sorry if my English is bad, I will try my best As far as I can remember I had a stutter for 8 years and I am 17 currently. My mom told me that I started stuttering after an experience i had with a relative of mine, I don't remember it but I was 7 years old and I stumbled in a word like any kids does and that relative of mine who is a grown up man yelled at me, which caused me a shock I don't remember that incidence but my mom told me after that I immediately started stuttering I became aware of it when I wanted to order a meal in McDonald's when I went to order I felt struggle deep. Inside me in the sentence Mc Chiken. Then I quickly changed to the number like I said it to him I want meal no 18 which means I am an overt Between age 9 to 13 I wasn't completely aware of my stutter yet but I still used to hear people mocking "why is he talking" or "what's wrong with him" at 15 of age it came to me that I am stutterer and I started using helping words I started using L before each word which is hard or felt like I was stuttering on it. One time in school I want a tissue and I said "Excuse me sir can you give me a L'tissue" which is funny at that moment the whole class laughed at me it almost came automatically the word L I didn't intend to do it but my mind placed it during that age13-16 stuttering didn't bother me much but at the age of of 17 I got in a depression phase I really hated myself and envied my twin brother fluency in speech which made me hate myself even more. And currently I am going to speech therapy in Jordan with good results. Sorry for making this a life story Hope I didn't bother you. Have a nice day
