Meet Up? - Bay Area, California I had a speech therapist for almost two years which greatly helped me mostly around coping skills and dealing with the deep emotional affects of my stuttering. Through out this period, I also had the greatest pleasure of meeting other people who shared this same struggle. This was huge for me (to be talking openly to others) because it was something I’ve been hiding my entire life from everyone, and I’m still working on talking more openly about my stutter. I have continued to keep in touch with someone I’ve met through therapy. We met for brunch recently and I was reminded about how amazing it feels to be around someone who gets me. We shared stories, tips and tricks, and even shed tears together. It was simply heartwarming and I’m so appreciative of our continued bond. If you are in the Bay Area, I’d love to do the same for anyone who’d think they’d benefit from a similar connection. You are certainly not alone!
