I just want to call someone Just made a Reddit to post this. I didn’t know communities like this existed. I just want to call someone I just want to hear another stuttering voice like me. I’m sixteen, a girl, and my minds been strangled by this stutter since I can remember bein able to vocalize shit. Docs say it’s from abuse n neglect, I just think my vocal cords stay mockin me. I don’t, I didn’t even know communities like this existed. Another desperate night here by me, crying over the lack of stamina my vocal cords got. My dream is to do spoken word. Now I’m just crying on my floor. In a halfway house currently n my roommate really degraded me for how I speak without meaning. Just a rough night. I don’t know how reddit works if y’all can message me or some shit but please do cause I deadass just want to know anyone who speaks like me. I never met a soul w a broken tongue like mine. It’s my dream. I used to daydream bout having a friend like me all thru elementary n middle school n shit. Yeah that’s it.
