I'm moderate to severe, usually more on the severe side. I've reached a point where om a lot more comfortable with it now than ever before. I don't hide it. I mean I can't anyway, but I also don't want to, it's part of who I am. People like it when you're authentic and if you're trying to hide something you can't, it's creates an incongruency where something doesn't add up and the vibe is weird. At least when I stutter, it's a known thing and I'm being myself. At that point it's on them how they want to feel about it.
