What do the happier severe stutterers tell themselves to maintain motivation for social activities? I’m looking for some quotes, mantras, whatever. Yes, stuttering fucking sucks. I don’t want to kill myself so I guess I’ll have to deal with it. It’s my last year of college and I need to figure out how to interact with people so I can get a career and not be a mute loser for the rest of my life. Today was day one of the semester and I couldn’t help but leave the room during introductions and again during some kind of icebreaker thing so now I know nobody in a class that revolves around a group project. I need to knock it the fuck off. I can barely speak so I write down most of what I’d like to say on my phone and hold it out to people. I’m looking for any relevant advice at all.
