I feel left behind in life because of my stammer I feel left behind in life because of my stammer. I am a 26-year-old man with no job, currently doing an internship. I know I have qualities, and if I didn’t stammer, I believe I could achieve a lot. But this feels like a block for me. I don’t know what is happening in my life or what my future will be. The life I imagined for myself as an adult when I was a child feels very different now, and I feel ashamed.
