All these replies are just plain sad, I don’t even know how are people supposed to fight a stutter when all this negative comments are flying around... You can be the person you want anytime, but reality is we’re scared of what people think of us at all times, that’s an obstacle. A lot of stutterers can’t get over this obstacle and that’s why they can’t respond to you properly. Start loving yourself, you’ve never stopped being you. Start forcing yourself to do things. Start to learn about yourself. Start learning about others. Start talking with a stutter and start not caring, then you’ll be ok. I promise you man. And that goes for everyone here!
