I recently watched a video on Youtube about a girl named Hannah, and she stutters. When I watched the video I came to realize that she has it worse then me. Hannah is a very beautiful girl, and she is so confident, and the fact that she talks about her stuttering and is not ashamed of it makes me respect her more.
I think the reason that I don't stutter as often is because I am not nervous like I used to be. When I was younger and started to stutter I was nervous, and I would let my stuttering take over my life.
I'm not saying that I don't stutter. I still do. But it goes off and on. In some situations I can talk forever, but other times I can't, and I often have trouble.
I came to learn that I need to accept the fact that I do stutter, and not I can't let it take over my life. I cannot stand people who treat us differently. We are not any different. And if anyone has the nerve to say that, then they are the rudest people I have met.
I still can't do presentations infront of my peers. I know nobody can, but I get nervous, and that's what makes me stutter.
When I talk to my friends and family, I barley do. There is the odd time I do, but it's nothing serious.
Hannah made me realize that a stutter is nothing to be ashamed of.
Once again, this site is a great place to meet people who have been through the same thing.
