Pretty much the same happened to me today. Last 10ish minutes of class, was called on to answer a question. I was trying to say my answer but experienced a block alongside stuttering. While trying to say the answer, the other classmates started to give weird looks while others were bursting out laughing as if they were watching a comedy show. After that, the last 10 minutes and the rest of the school day I just felt humiliated. Didn’t really want to speak to anyone after that and just go on in a room and sleep this feeling away. Makes me think back to my other similar experiences to what happened today. Really sucks how people especially your own peers don’t have respect for people with disabilities now on.
