Hi Dana,

Welcome to the forum, sorry to hear about your aunt, the grief you are still suffering and also starting school combined are the reasons your speech has gone really bad. We have all been through the same as you regarding startig school and it isnt easy at the moment but the more you try and interact and speak to people then they will start to get to know you and see past your stutter.

We are here for you.

Take care.

Nick.

Hi Dana,

You're welcome of course. I know your feelings and the hurt when being laughed at. I've always been scared when having to stand up and make a class presentation. But I got some very good advice here telling me that no one can expect me to be the best speaker. And now I expect me to just stand up and speak and I think it works. Although I still stutter.

Good luck anyway!
