Help Hi I’m 19m and have had a stutter since I was young , I find it hard to talk to people about what is on my mind and what I feel like and I feel like I always miss out on things and I’ve never really had like proper friends like every summer I just sort of sit at home and I’m quite antisocial as well because of my stutter I feel like I’m lower than most people. I’ve also had really bad drug problem for the past two years been on and off but now i am a bit better but I really struggle from anxiety and I smoke so much weed on a daily basis I don’t even function properly like I genuinely cannot think straight . I was diagnosed with depression and severe to moderate anxiety at the beginning of the year and when my drug issue was worse I had issue with my parents and other people because I was so bad and my friends found out and now I feel like people just sort of look down on me even more like I’m stupid or something and to be honest I don’t blame them I barely speak on a daily basis and I’m always high but it just makes me feel better . I don’t know I just feel like shit all the time and I feel like I can’t even speak to anyone about it or anything because no one really cares anymore like I don’t feel comfortable speaking to anyone and people just ignore me and forgot about me . I don’t know what to do I’ve also got a bad gambling issue as well which I feel like makes my depression much worse and it’s literally killing ne mentally . My anxiety is unbearable I don’t even know why I’m typing this I’ve just got no one to talk to .
