Family making fun of my speech. I don’t exactly stutter all the time or have been diagnosed with anything, but I struggle with my speech. I can speak really fast and stumble over my words and repeat myself until I can be intelligible. My family has been mocking me though and I’ve been getting frustrated. Overall, I’m sometimes embarassed when I’m speaking around others.
