Worried I’m making other people uncomfortable
Content
Worried I’m making other people uncomfortable I know it sounds strange but does anyone else feel like they’re bothering people with their stutter? I’m living in shared student accommodation at the moment and I try not to let my stutter hold me back from talking to my room mates: obviously I did tell them about it quite early on just to take the pressure off. But I’ve noticed recently when I’m talking to them and I have a block, they drop eye contact straight away or look at something else and this makes me wonder if my speech annoys them, or are they doing it to make me more comfortable and feel under less pressure? Although I have noticed myself that I would sometimes drop eye contact too when I block although I am trying to improve on this. Anyone have similar thoughts/experiences?
