MY STUTTER, MY LIFE AND ME - An Unplanned Love Triangle

  • An honest, witty, and encouraging book about stuttering - covering the "shitty days" as well as the small victories.

Suddenly, the words get stuck: Jenni has a stutter. Overnight, the quick-witted education student lost not only her ability to speak fluently but also her self-confidence. And she is not alone. Approximately one million people in Germany stutter, though it often goes unnoticed. They have mastered techniques to manage their speech impairment - learning how to bridge syllables and release words that vehemently resist being spoken. It is grueling work that often takes years, during which those affected may face teasing, exclusion, and co-occurring psychological challenges.

Jennifer Springer shares how stuttering transformed her life, the daily hurdles she overcomes, and what helped her learn to live with it. This is an honest, witty, and informative book for those affected, their loved ones, and anyone interested in the journey - covering both the "shitty days" and the small victories.
