First I want to say thank you for sharing your story! It is so inspirational! As an undergraduate student that plans on becoming a speech pathologist it is important for me to realize the emotional hardships that people who stutter have to go through on a daily basis. Reading your story really helped me to understand how debilitating stuttering can be for a person. I am so glad to hear you have overcome your shyness and are now helping people who are in the same position you once were. At the beginning of your paper you talked about how you were bullied as a child. Do you ever wish that your speech pathologist would have interfered to help you out by giving you different techniques that would have helped you to cope with or put an end to the bullying?
