A large part of me honestly blamed my mom and the physically abusive childhood I had. I'd be yelled at and then hit over trivial things. She has since acknowledged it all but there's resentment- including blame from my side. I don't remember exactly when I started to stutter but I was well into elementary school so I can't pinpoint on a timeline. I don't want to ask my mom if she remembers because I know I'll take it to a defensive level.
