I’m not even a PWS and intros were always the worst in school for me, so I applaud you! And try to remember that while you’re doing your intro, everyone else is half listening just thinking of what th...

This is what I hated most about school. I went from a Catholic grade school where I knew everyone for 8 years to a public high school where I knew no one. First class was with an old jackass teacher...

First day back to my 2nd semester today, and I already had both of my classes want introductions. Having introductions is literally the stutter equivalent to death row. You know when you're gonna get ...

I feel the same way. I’m no longer super hard on myself for my stutter as I was in school. I’m still on the quieter side but I don’t avoid interaction like I used to. If you don’t mind me asking, ho...
