I'm one of the people that voted "would stay the same" And I have to say its not because I've had it easier, its because of how I view my stutter now. Your perspective of your stutter is 100% up to ...

I used to think the same, why was I the one of all people that stutter, why me, what had I done to deserve this. But then I realized there are people who can't speak, can't see, can't listen. I wonder...

Just be you, I try not to see mine as a bad thing I have to be aware of. Obviously I have bad days when it’s depressing and I feel like everyone else says that I don’t show my real self. But you’ll fi...

\^\^\^\^\^ This. You only think you are losing your true self because you think that others are better than you, but in reality we are responsible for having that inner true self (based on OUR opinion...
