RANT!!!! Feeling inadequate So I try to not let my stutter get in the way of me living life. I’m very outgoing with lots of friends & I still try to engage in conversation even if I sound like I’m having a stroke. But holy fuck sometimes there’s only so much I can take.. When I stutter, I feel like it makes me SO ugly. I believe I’m an objectively attractive person, but I feel like when I open my mouth all of that attractiveness goes away. Like I so wish I could be that “cool & suave” person but with my stutter it makes me feel worthless & undesirable. I know this may seem rather vain of me to be complaining about since having a stutter causes a ton of other more important issues but this is what I’m feeling as of now. My insecurity of having a stutter is tied to most areas of my life, as I’m sure it is with a lot of you, & the way I feel like it *physically* makes me look really bothers me. Fucking having to squinch up my face, keep my eyes closed, biting my bottom lip, having to tap on something or whatever weird mannerism I have to do in order to get a word out really just leaves me feeling shitty. I want to be seen as desirable, especially in the dating world, & I feel like my stutter doesn’t allow that. Anyway, just needed to vent to some people who hopefully understand what I’m going through. Please comment if you can relate or have any feedback!
