I don’t think you understand it’s the people around you. And like I said again, it’s a DISABILITY. You think I don’t try every single day to make myself a better person? It’s just like how I would ...

Started to agree until the “Stop worrying for no reason” You must’ve grown up in a privileged environment because trust me, a majority of us stutters have every reason to worry. We get mocked on a...

At the stutter therapy that i went to they believed a stutter has to do ymwith the diaphragm because the diaphragm stutters when you stutter. So they think it's physical and partly psychological. So s...
