Me too. I’m getting tired of the throat and jaw tension that comes with me being so deathly afraid to repeat syllables a few times. I’m so afraid because I don’t want to stand out negatively. I don’t want to be an example. I don’t want to annoy people with my speech or be an inconvenience. I’m done with this mindset. I can’t put the blame on myself or live with so much fear any more regarding speech and socialization. I demand better for myself. Stuttering it is.
