You keep saying that anyone who doesn't share your view of the world is missing the point. But it's you who is missing the point. Anyone who stutters has, at some point in their life, felt exactly the way you feel. You look at people who can say anything they want without giving it a second thought and feel some amount of resentment towards them for it. Especially those people who don't take full advantage of their speaking ability. You probably hear someone who doesn't stutter talking about being nervous about phone interview and scoff at the thought of someone without a stutter being scared to talk on the phone. But the way you experience life is not the way they experience life. You know your own struggles; you don't know theirs. And frankly, all you're doing is using your own struggles as an excuse. "Well, I stutter so obviously I can't achieve what I'd be able to achieve if I didn't stutter." Bullshit. If you know how to get rich then do it. The only stopping you is yourself. You've stuttered your whole life so, this isn't a new experience for you. But it's easier to say I can't do it than it is to put in the work and take risks. Yeah, networking for us isn't the same experience as it is for people who don't stutter. But again, the only thing keeping you from building those connections is your unwillingness to do it. This is a very unhealthy way of thinking. You CAN talk. It may not be smooth like most other people but you CAN do it. Hiding behind your stutter and using it as an excuse to avoid challenging situations will only lead to more resentment and eventually regret. Nobody ever said life was supposed to be easy.
