Hey, it's me! Unfortunately, my stutter makes me VERY quiet and I always avoid having to talk to anyone. This ended up greatly affecting my social relationships; I practically have no friends, and even during my school years I would get sick giving presentations. I always felt useless and even thought about killing myself a few times. Today I'm trying to move forward by doing exercises to improve and I'm even confident enough to face job interviews.
