Thank you so much for this reply, I’ve actually thought about therapy for not only my stutter but also my anxiety and depression and delusions as well, but working overnights means that even if I did have the courage to ask for help I wouldn’t know when I would actually see the therapists because I work overnights. And this may just be one of my delusions but I’ve always thought that therapy doesn’t/wouldn’t work because how can you tell me that the same mind, the one that thinks and feels all these negative emotions, is just gonna stop having them? Like it’s the same brain and speech therapy didn’t work on me to well so that further reinforces it. Also my parents got well paying jobs but they’re busy and my dads extra busy with classes starting up again where he teaches so it just feels like I would be wasting their time. And none of my two older siblings have ever had these mental problems. Sorry if I’m wasting your time I’ve also been bottling up this vent too.
