You drew me right in with each phase. I felt like I was in your mind! Awesome writing. I don't have a stutter (at least I don't think but this has me questioning it a little now) but I absolutely detest all of the things that you mention - reading aloud, speaking in front of others, and the phone!!! My anxiety goes out of control so what do I do... I don't do any of those things anymore! That's not a good way to live. I love the ending of this and we just have to accept all of our parts because they make us who we are! :)
