You can do anything! Hey everyone! I’ve been a stutterer my whole life, and I used to absolutely dread speaking in front of people. I would be endlessly stressed about giving presentations in school (high school and college), and phone calls were a major source of anxiety for me. Recently (before the pandemic) I started doing standup comedy, and even more recently I started streaming on Twitch. Hearing myself in recordings is still kind of tough sometimes, but both of these outlets have given me so much confidence! Even though we stutter, we can still enrich other people’s lives! Don’t give up on speaking! We’re so much more than just stutterers! Have a great day everyone.
