Thank you for your post. I was fortunate that my friends, family, and teachers all supported my decision to become an SLP. While I had challenges with day to day talking, overall becoming a speech-language pathologist made things easier for me. It was easier to be open about/disclose the fact that I stutter. My stuttering (and experience with it) become an asset. Even though it continues to create problems in my life (particularly in non-professional settings), overall it also colors my life in a positive ways.
