I just had someone very close to me who I’ve reconnected with, be very surprised at how severe my stutter had become. His attempt at consoling during a talk we had was to say that he also stutters. ...

Don't give up. Some people just don't get it. It's harsh to face such situations I agree. But really the ultimate truth is we can't control how other people view us. So be strong and move on and keep ...

To be fair, some people did stutter at one point and then stopped stuttering later on. It's possible they still remember how it was. Also, some people receive help and support and manage to get to a ...
