Content

I really focused on mastering the art of not giving a fuck. My stutter is moderate, at times severe and really messed with me as a teen and young adult. The social anxiety was crippling, so I really focused on changing my mindset and moving toward a fuck it kind of attitude. Took practice , but it stuck. I don’t care anymore and just handle my business. If I stutter during a phone call or office meeting I just say fuck it and move on , no big deal. As a stutterer, you don’t owe it to anyone not to stutter but you do owe it to yourself to accept who you are and realize that stuttering doesn’t have to define you.
