When I was in highschool and the start of college I'll admit, it was rough... My stutter comes with facial ticks and that's a bit of a deal breaker for some people, I get it. However fast forward a couple of years, I've been in the best, most supportive relationship with my best friend for 3 years. And 3 months ago I was lucky enough to marry her! Things will look up friends; the best advice I have is be gentle with yourself. I know how frustrating it is, how angry it makes you when you know what you want to say but your brain won't let you say it. But don't beat yourself up, take it one day at a time and if you can surround yourself with good people.
