If you stop speaking on the phone, you're letting your stutter win. I just stumbled across the reddit group the other day. The more I see of it, the more I realize why it was so important to push mys...

I work as an announcer on my school's radio station hearing that, and "just breathe" makes my blood boil. I'm trying my best, I talked to my boss about me having a speech disorder and she said she co...
