I 100% understand how you're feeling. Its hard because people have the best intentions, they don't think in their mind theyre being belittling... but it does come across that way sometimes I have felt like that before. ​ To be honest, when I was at school and university... I was exempt from doing presentations. I let my disability department know, and I was only graded on the content of my presentation not the delivery. To you I guess you wouldnt like that, you wanted to give it a a go... which honestly Is a great mentality to have. ​ I think its always bad to compare yourself to other people, yes it sucks being a stammerer... but its not all bad. You should be proud of getting up there, and giving it your best shot. Try to find the positives in things.
