Anyone here NOT struggle to make friends? I feel as if I am exceptionally bad at making friends, and I know that my stutter plays a role in that. But I want to know if this is the main reason why people see me as unlikeable or if its because of something else, and if so, if this is a universal experience for PWS and whether I should just learn to accept it rather than fight against it (by learning to be more charismatic/likeable) which is very exhausting
