Heres another image to try and help people understand why I don’t say it right, and how i could try and fix it.

When i was younger it was hard I admit that. I hated to talk, I hated my voice and the way I sounded I used to bawl. No one was able to understand me it was horrible. The only people who knew what I was saying was the people who was always around me, to know the way I said things. Now the only time I really mess up is when my tongue gets a little tied. But when that happens I just slow down and finish what I was saying then keep going and it’s all better. So i have had rough spots but now that I’m older I really don’t have any big problems like I used to.

Its to the point that me and my friends just joke about it. We always try and challenge myself to say words that I can’t, like car, girl and things like that. Then we just laugh about it later. Then one of my friends sometimes says my name wrong without an ‘r’ on purpose just so we can laugh. It’s to the point I don’t really care, it’s going to stay the way it is basically so I just chill with it and just laugh about it.

Maybe this picture can actually help people. So I posted it to help others.

Another reason why I ‘ dropped ‘ out of speech was because my cousin from out of the state is actually a speech therapist, and really good at it. So we just said if it got too bad that, I would just have her teach me but it’s not really that bad for me. As of right now, I don’t think it’s necessary to have her come and teach me some because I’m doing okay. So I’m just chilling honestly.

Right now I’m really struggling, because I have to write an essay for one of my classes. She wants us to use words that we don’t use everyday, and I struggle with that because I don’t like using words that I may not pronounce, so I’m dreading it. I make sure to tell her everyday but I think she thinks I’m joking.

What I refused to do over break, was order my own food. We went out to eat A LOT and not once did I tell the person what I wanted, either my mom, brother , or friend did for me. I know it’s dumb, I don’t like repeating myself over and over again because I get embarrassed thinking it’s because of my speech problem. I kind of have good friends because not once have they made me order for myself someone always does it for me no matter where we’re at or who’s around they do it. Maybe one day I’ll get over it and order my own food, but then again I doubt it.

I know it’s been a long 2 weeks and I’m finally back. We went to Christmas break and I definitely was not fixing to blog on my break I was not even thinking about school. I had a good break and slept a lot and spent time with my friends. So now you’ll be seeing me blog again for a while!
