commentr/StutterDecember 15, 2022

Content

Yea I’ve struggled with suicidal thoughts for around ten years not all due to my stutter but the stutter is a large contributor. Especially breaking into EMS and firefighting, I constantly feel inferior and like I might be a deterrent to patients/coworkers when in field. Always been told the opposite of that, but for some reason the stutter has always made me feel inferior to my fellow men/women.
