getting worse :\ I’ve always had a stutter but it’s very mild, mostly just repeating words. ‘It’s over there’ becomes ‘It-it-it-it’s over there’ for instance. But I think it’s getting worse now, whi...

I’ve met a few people who laughed at my stutter. They got used to it though and the laughing went away. I don’t blame you, though. I have a blocking stutter, so I just get stuck on sounds and they w...
