I stopped caring what people think about it. If I stutter, I stutter. If I don't, I don't. Anyone with any decency won't mind putting up with it. I'll do my best not to stutter, but eventually I realized I have to own that I'm a stutterer. No two ways about it. better to just be at peace with reality than constantly worrying about what others think of it. Easier said than done, I know I still find myself getting anxious about it. But, of course, I remind myself that these things are trivial. If I stutter, I'm just going to own it.
