Never "discussed" it but my mother once told me to talk like a real man and stop being a pussy when talking. As if I can control it...

Yeah I think it definitely should be and yeah stammering affects a major part of life and this case it is being assessed so it should be taken seriously as a disability. I wouldn’t give up on it thoug...
