Yeah, I feel the same way sometimes. Every time I talk about it with my parents, they tell me it's no big deal and that it's all in my head. But they don't get it. No one does except us people who stutter. The weird looks, the anxiety, the feeling of being inadequate or inferior... I wish I could afford therapy, because I'm in a rut and I don't know how to get out of it. Always one step forward and two steps back.
