What Should I do? Hello everyone!!! I am reading everyday this subreddit and I am amazed how supportive people can be.. So basically I am stutter but I am only blocking on certain words(some I can anticipate and some not) i am not repeating words but I can say that my stutter is not that bad as others but certainly made me change my personality and not be the person i really want ( i cant say everything i have in mind this is what i mean). I am 17 and last 2 years of highschool i tried to mask my stutter and only be open with my deskmate or close friends from highschool. I still got 2 years left and I really want a change. I want a girlfriend (i can say i am average to good looking and i do sports) but idk how should i proceed( maybe i can focus on texting and make her aware that i sometimes stutter?) Anyways enough talking sorry for making this too long but give me tips or tell how your life went as a teenager. Thanks and have a great day!!!
