Hello, thank you very much for all the answers. Can I have some more questions tho haha? I'm sorry, I hate doing that, but I have so many questions. I started wondering, if stuttering is something that is contagious? Not in the literal meaning, of course. But like, when it comes to my tics, if I see someone twitching certain way, I might start doing that too. And the more I read about it, the more I tic myself. So with stuttering, does it get worse if you talk to someone who also stutters? Or read about it? Also, you mentioned I should look out for myths, could you recommend me like a page or YouTube channel that could be helpful? (That's why I asked if seeing someone who also stutters or reading about it, makes it worse, I would hate to make it worse for myself, so maybe I shouldn't know much about it?) And now, I hope this doesn't get too personal. If it does, just ignore this question. I assume you stutter yourself? If you do, how are your family and friends acting about it? Cuz my father is acting like I'm stupid or whatever. He always was weird about my Tourettes, but now this too. And it's so frustrating, cuz I know I'm not stupid, I just seem to not be able to articulate my opinion. My friends are chill tho, I mean, they were suprised when it all started (like 7 months ago) but they mostly got used to me being weird (this time thanks to my Tourettes lmao). Anyway, I just can't imagine getting used to it. To the feeling of not being able to speak like a normal person, and like what, if it doesn't go away I will stutter forever. All the things I didn't say, because it's just too tiring, and if it's so tiring for me, how can others handle it.
