Stuttering makes me physically tired
Content
Stuttering makes me physically tired My Stutter is relatively mild, but talking and thinking leaves me so fatigued and drained. When I talk it sometimes feels like all the air has left my body and I've been completely winded, when I talk and walk at the same time, or when I do a presentation I'm left gasping for air. The constant thinking also leaves me mentally drained, thinking about how to simplify my sentences to make them easier to say, repeating sentences in my head over and over again, all of it just makes me so tired. and I know that changing how I view my stutter will help the mental fatigue, but god I wish I didn't have the physical tiredness after talking lol
