Content

I just graduated college, school was a weird place for me. I feel like my stutter has actually gotten worse over the years. I was made fun of and laughed at, but never seriously bullied. I had friends in school and got along with everyone, but was still depressed and miserable. I would hate saying my name, reading aloud, answering questions, presenting to the class. It filled me with so much anxiety and depression. I'm 22 and still haven't had a GF. In fact, I've never even had anyone express romantic interest in me. I can tell when I stutter in front of girls, it's an instant turn off. I have no confidence. No flirting skills. Even if I don't stutter talking to girls, I'm nervous asf and that's not attractive.
