Story from not to long ago!
I'm in odessa tx, going to mcdonalds on 42nd street, I pull up to order box & start ordering. I get my order out, and this guys comes out talking just like me & I get man & start cuss the guy & fly up to window where I'm going to jerk him out of. Well come to find out he really was stuttering.. Man I felt so bad I made him so nervous. I told him I was sorry, I didn't know! Man I felt really bad for a couple of days & still do! I guess it just caught me off guard idk.

I've always had a pretty radical philosophy about this. My thought is that everyone has SOME form of handicap, be it mental or physical, small or big. There is no fine line between normal and not normal, regardless of how you define normal. How you cope with your own issues and everyone else's reaction to it truly defines you as a person, not the little problems here and there.

I kinda know what your going through I don't talk much specially in a group of people. I mumble and I always get my words mixed up and comes out as a bunch of giberish and I just gotta slow down and repeat everything.

Got a friend who stutters pretty bad. We all give him **** about it and it usually helps him. He'll cuss us out (again clear as day), laugh about it and go about his original statement w/o stuttering.
I swear I have that.

I used to stutter and had a hard time trying to get the words to come out as a kid up until around 14 years old. Talking to some one I didnt know was real hard especially when I was trying to start the conversation. The way I got rid of it was to whenever I wanted to start a convesation or say something I would take a deep breath and start by whispering the beginning of the word and half way through it say it out loud, once ther first word came out the rest would follow.
What help me the most was confidence! Walking up to people with my chest up high like if I was superman or something and just said what I wanted,needed,felt or just started a convesation with some one.

The more I think about what I'm going to say, the less likely the words are to come out of my mouth. What's bad is that I usually know the answer to someone's question before they even finish it. Then I recite it over and over a million times a second in my head and just can't get it out. So my answer is usually backwards with a few extra "spur of the moment" words.
Oh yea, the times I stutter the least are when I'm drunk and/or talking to girls.

I've been told that one of the most well known voices of our time used to stutter....James Earl Jones, yes, the voice of Darth Vader and numerous other voice overs. I believe that he had intense therapy to overcome it. I've had friends who stutter, and my 4 year old gets so excited when she's trying to get her point across that she starts to stutter and repeat herself. If I ever catch anyone laughing or making fun of her I'll break their knee caps. The people who made fun of my friends who stuttered were always sure to be told how dumb and ignorant they are. Nobody's perfect, and people who put down the shortcomings of others are ignorant and insecure.
