Didn't know this subreddit existed... Guess this is a vent. Seriously, how do you deal with depression? I never win arguments/debates, never contribute in conversations because I know I'll embarrass myself, messed up double digits amount of job interviews, I feel like women think I'm nervous or shy when talking to them but am the complete opposite I just can't help stuttering. Stuttering is one of those problems that no one takes seriously. Sometimes I think I'd rather be mute. So I can call it a disability and not feel like a whiny bitch EDIT: Thanks for all the words. In retrospect I don't know what the point of this post was. It felt good at the time letting it out to a bunch of strangers.
