I feel you. You can only be positive to an extent ya know? Like I’m not constantly bummed out about it, but when it comes for the time where speech is important- like an interview, talking to others, and giving presentations, it’s so irritating and unfair that for others something as simple as talking is not such a hassle. It doesn’t help that our disability is “right in between” like we aren’t taken as seriously or as recognized as physical and other disabilities, but we also can speak, just have blocks. It’s stressful out here. It’s hard to keep your head up all the time.
