Yes! People at my work are starting to realise I stutter. They're purposely asking me to repeat myself. I know damn well they heard me too. That's the kind of stuff that's frustrating......

(M21) Whenever I go to any place to order or ask for something I just write them on my phone and show it to the dude. I had enough. It's humiliating yes. I just want to avoid the awkward stupid situ...

For me, this tactic 'worked' for 25+ years.I learned this through fear and embarrassment because I had adult family members who would make fun of me... "Ju-Ju-Ju- just g-g-g-et it out stu-stu-stu-stup...
