Well, before I begin, let me introduce myself. I'm a 15 year-old boy and I have been stuttering for about 7-8 years now. Before, I didn't work on my stutter or put some effort to fix it, but I have decided to start practicing because: 1- I can't just leave myself 2- I got to start speaking fluently so that in the future I could get in the society easily (like make new friends, or get a job,...) 3- I noticed at school that every 2 weeks or so, a girl would come say hi and start flirting... And I could be dating right now, but I rejected 2 girls that tried to talk to me (both in this last month), because I feared that the relationship would end because of my stuttering. Anyway, I'm working on my speech fluency, and I'm seeing some results! Have a good day and sorry for the long post😅
