Junior year of high school was particularly bad for whatever reason. There was a lot going on in my life at the time I suppose. Aside from that, middle school was pretty darn rough. Overall though it ...

I think a lot of stutters talk less than normal, and many don’t stutter on the majority of their words, so even if you run into one you might not know. Outside of dedicated stuttering meetups I think ...

We can't assume he has an average stutter. He mentioned he couldn't order what he wanted at restaurants. That's pretty severe imo. He may not have the most severe stutter ever seen but he has one that...

Indeed of course it helps to have inner acceptance of a 'disability' if we want to even call it that, acceptance will be the biggest milestone to cross So for that I'm glad it helps. Also age makes a...
