Does anybody else hate how there's no treatment for stuttering? It saddens me that they got shit to help people with ADHD, Depression, PTSD etc but there's nothing to help people who stutter, I hate having to go through life not being able to talk when it comes naturally to others, and knowing that there's nothing that can be done to help me because there's no medical treatment for it. there's no medicine or device I can use to help my speech, I just gotta go through life not being able to talk like a normal fucking human being. I try to hide my stuttering from my friends and sometimes I just avoid them out of fear of stuttering around them and than them treating me like a baby. Like goddamn why can't I be fucking normal.
