It has taken it’s toil on me Usually Im not so pessimistic about my stuttering, but tonight I was really bothered by it. I was at the pub with a friend of mine and in the beginning I was so fluent that my stutter was absolutely not noticeable... but after 30 minutes it had taken it’s toil and I couldn’t even finish a simple sentence without stuttering. My stutter is not even like other stutters, When I stutter on a word I twitch my head uncontrollably just to get the word out. Im in complete sadness right now and I hope I get over it soon.
