My advice would be to not only rehearse your speech, but also get into the mindset of not giving a shit, right now you're overthinking it and that's natural, but the more you ruminate on it the more y...

Many people who don’t have a stutter really don’t know how hard it is or don’t know how much it’s tied to mental health as well. It’s normal for your mom to do that so I wouldn’t blame her but I also ...
