To me being social means going out frequently and spending time with other people. When I’m social I seek out hanging out with my friends and I freely approach people on the street for a conversation....

Dating and Dating apps

Dating and Dating apps Hi, I am 28M. I have never had a relationship. About a year ago, I was on a few dating apps. I was able to get 5 dates within 4months. All of the dates were awful, as soon as...

It is. But whatever, I just can’t talk good. Big deal right? I’m 34 and find it easier to just be alone. Communication is exhausting...

Where did all my friends go?

Where did all my friends go? Started stuttering a few years back. Stuttering has been on and off, but I can’t help but notice that my friends and family keep trying to avoid me. Is it the fact that I ...

I have a severe stutter. You say you sometimes feel excluded from this community. Well, I have been felt excluded from the society all my life, since i was a child. I would like to say my stutter is m...

Idk man I'm so sick of being treated like a leper. And then when people realize I'm capable, and possibly even more knowledgeable or intelligent then they are, it's immediate hostility. I'm really giv...

Let me be the first to tell you you should not seek validation through people, regardless of if you have a speech impediment or not. Now, for the friends issue, you just have to put yourself out there...

Zero communication skills, poor health because of inability to make/attend appointments. Unable to have a conversation with anyone outside of my immediate family. I come across like an idiot at social...

All of what you mentioned plus social anxiety, loneliness, suicidal thoughts (when I was younger), self isolation. Still trying to accept myself and live this life somehow....

This post resonated with me so much. I let go of any sort of hope years ago but it’s especially hitting me now. I’m a 22 y old female, and just at the age where people are starting to be thrown off t...

I think it would remain "a big deal", even if we're 1%. As soon as we're different, being fat, short, too tall, ugly, having a disabily or being a stutterer, at some point it's always a big deal in ou...

Well it is 1% of population not 1% of people you meet. Also most people hide their stutter by simply not talking, most disabilities are viewable before contact, people usually dont know you stutter un...
