Not aggressive off the bat. But aggressive after I stuck up for myself for being abused. These where kids & young men so to speak. Especially in school. I've gotten beaten up badly also as a result as a kid. Thank you for your concern though I appreciate it! Considering not many people have cared to show sympathy...this was in America, but happened mostly to me 25 years ago as a kid. But also happened more recently throughout my life. I don't have to fight or get beat up anymore since I was a kid. But it can always happen. It's mostly just verbal abuse by certain people if I slip up, which I can never let slide and there's always a chance of altercations if the other person wants to get aggressive about it.. I notice that when I was growing up bullying in general was more widely accepted & wasn't seen as something that could ruin lives. I even talked with other stutterers younger than me and they where kind of shocked by what I went through. I think stuttering & other handicaps are slightly more protected then they where in even the recent past..but as I interact with older people most don't start problems over it unless they're very immature. I'm in my mid 30s now, with ptsd & lost alot because of my speech. But I'm still here kicking I guess. And I would love to check out those free resources. I appreciate it!
