I have a dissimilar experience to most stutterers that I’ve met (I go to NSF meetings) in that I’m incredibly happy I stutter. My fear of speaking as a child made me writing-crazy, and I developed a f...

Do you use an online app like Instacart Or bitesquad? Normally there are “notes on how to deliver” that you can add. I normally give a very detailed sentence on how to get to my unit. When they call, ...
