All things fair, the examples you mentioned, although terrible (bullying, domestic abuse), are changeable and fixable, a stutter is not. A stutter can be worked, accepted and improved, but never fixed. This leaves us with one conclusion: the stutter is part of you whether you like it or not, and you have an actual decision to make everyday, pity yourself or live as best as you can. By this I’m not saying that you should not pity yourself, I’m saying that you should not do it all the time, because then, of course, bad things will happen. You gotta save yourself man, no one will do it for you.
