For me I have totally accepted I'm in speaking-wise, handicapped. So I tend to let others see me in that way, with no misunderstanding. I am not normal, I have a condition that cripples my speech and I had enough of pretending Im normal just like them. Fortunately I found a burning passion in writing, it becomes a window for me to express myself other than speaking, although I have little to no audience. Still, writing is a way I found to express myself, and of it I acquire a happier outlook in life.
