I Hate This Ok so I've been stuttering for almost as long as I can remember when I was 5 and people made fun of me, at first I didn't care about who said what and made fun of me but now I'm very humiliated about it. Lockdown made it worse, I spoke like 10 words during lockdown so stuttering is on top of my problem list. I started going to a new school 2 weeks ago, I haven't talked much but people must've figured out that I stutter, a few days ago my class teacher told me to give an introduction about myself and tell my last schools name ( I wasn't able to do it, I stood there with no voice but my lips were moving as I was trying to get the words out of my mouth but i wasn't able to). She even made fun of me (can't blame it on her, it was very weird) I was very humiliated and idk how I'm going to talk to my classmates after this thing, everyone was looking at me like I was the clown. I Hate this i Hate this i Hate this so much
