No I am not really proud of it. But my stutter has made a better person in many ways. I am more compassionate and have empathy for others. That's why I am very sensitive and I don't like seeing people bully or mistreat others and I rarely hurt people's feeling intentionally (or even at all). It has also made me stronger person since I have had to deal with bullying issues, feeling frustrated with my speech, isolated, etc. I still wouldn't say I am proud or thankful of having my stutter, but it definitely has changed me, since I am at a better place now.
