Hey, I have felt suicidal before. I know how alienating it can feel having a stutter, I chose to take a step back and slow my life down. I quit my job and moved back in with my parents, I know not everyone can do that... ​ but it is certainly better to take some time out and try to reevaluate life, then to make such a drastic decision. I am sure there are people in your life that love you, and would be devastated. 90% of our struggle is in our own mind, a change in perspective can be very powerful. What do you enjoy in life? Are there things that you would love to try, but havnt? Are there places you want to visit? Remember, what other random people think of you is completely irrelevant. Do what makes you happy
