Nancy, I have accepted my stuttering but it doesn't mean I have to always like it. I have changed in the aspect that I am a little bit more okay if I stutter with someone and that it is something that won't change. I am a little more relaxed in situations and the really deep friendships I have made have changed my views of what real friendships are all about. I have really let others in, to get to know me, where as before, I may have been hesitant because of my stuttering and being afraid of what I can't say. So in that way, I have changed how I think about myself and have become more accepting of my stutter but I don't know if I can ever stop hiding..it's who I am.
