I’m right there, and often. I went to a party last night, and I could sense that people don’t want me to join their little small conversation groups. When I’m standing next to someone, there are awkwa...

Till today I thought I was alone in this situation. Even I never had someone to share my thoughts n emotions. That too with my stuttering speech, people needed more patience to listen to me. So I cons...

I hear you bro, tbh I don't really have a friend to share my such awkward situations with, maybe a friend i tell him sometimes, but he is like he doesn't care about it, so i just keep it for myself, y...

Oh yes that too totally. I'm very socially withdrawn. But imo I don't see that as autism. I say all the time, even if my stutter magically went away I would still be very socially awkward due to the f...

I tried to do it but backfired completely xd. There's so much things I could if I was a fluent speaker but my stutter holds me back and I rarely talk to anyone. I probably developed aspd from my men...

I try my best to hide it. People always ask me when I'm socializing, "and why are you so quiet". Then I reply, that I'm more of a listener. I'd love to interact, but due to this thing, I can't always....

I unfortunately avoid and don’t attend gatherings as much as possible, female here… reason: to spare me the horrors of talking to people I’m not that close with, and the psychological exhaustion I fee...

Yeah I relate. I’ve always hidden my stutter. I’ll change my words around or find different ways to say things just to avoid stuttering. Over time I’ve developed selective mutism, I barely talk out lo...

Does anyone else hide there Stutter?

Does anyone else hide there Stutter? I’m a senior in high school and I know of 2 other kids who also stutter. These 2 other guys are very open with their stutter and don’t really care if people know a...

Stuttering causes psychological problems for me too

Stuttering causes psychological problems for me too I think I'm bipolar. I talk to myself. I create scenarios in my head. I avoid people. No one wants to be my friend because I can't show them my good...

Ya man, hopefully I’ll have the motivation to join some interest group. Uni is so depressing lol I see, my friends are not the manipulative type too, but we never hang out at all anymore so I’m alone...

I feel that my entire personality is carved around my stutter. I went to co-ed secondary school and JC, and I have a few friends as I rarely opened up to people. In NS, my self-esteem and confidence ...

Even w/o the stutter, there's still the fear of being ignored, mocked, say something misunderstood, clumsy or wrong, the fear of being the center of attention when you talk, the fear of giving a bad a...

I liked the post but I know the feeling. My bestie struggles with social anxiety and I would never say her feelings aren't valid but at the same time I'm thinking at least you speak clearly. She's r...

It's like I'm invisible

It's like I'm invisible I'm 23 years old, and I don't feel like I've lived my life to the fullest. Something is always missing. I have no joy in life. I'm trapped in my house. Even when I go out, I av...

I've just recently met seven others who stutter at a NSA Meeting after 40 years ive never met anyone else. It was a breath of fresh air just meeting others who go through the struggle. They're having ...

> Here’s the truth that some people will not want to hear: Most of the people constantly whining about their stutter would still have terrible social lives even if they woke up perfectly fluent tomorr...

I feel you’re focusing too much on the girlfriend part. Having people around you that you feel comfortable around is a priority. I’m currently in uni and i have no one but that’s okay because i have o...

Wow, that is horrible. Porky was one I loved as a kid too, in spite of my stutter. He didn't make me feel self conscious for some reason (similar things normally would). With that said, I don't think ...
