Don't feel bad WillH43. I too have a speech impediment. I stutter when I talk. Not all the time though. If I get excited about something, I have to stop talking, take a moment and try to relax. But I still stutter.
There was one instance fairly recently where I knew I was going to stutter, but I let all my air out, took a deep breath, and said the word without stuttering, and I was shocked. The thing I hate is when I talk face to face with others, and they start smiling, as if to make fun of it.
It's how I talk, I can't help it. So like at work, I wanted to page for someone over the speaker, but I didn't because the last thing I need is never ending stutter. It sucks having it, but when I talk to others, I try to take my time speaking, and not care if I stutter or not, because it's gonna happen.
