Stuttering Openly

It is great to have a friend that you can try things on! Cindy and I met for lunch, and I didn't try to hide my stuttering that is as long as it was just us at the table. We had a few minutes by ourselves but when another coworker joined us, I immediately fell back into my old habits. Old habits are hard to break, plus I can see that this process of admitting to others that I am a stutterer and stopping the tricks I use to hide my stutter is not something that will happen in a short time. They say "patience is a virtue" so I will try to be patient with myself - something that I have always wanted others to be with me!
