Feeling like just a guy with a stutter than a friend to ppl, not sure how to explain it Has anyone ever felt like when ppl find out you have a stutter, you'll just be " that guy with a stutter" to them. I'm pretty confident when speaking to friends and stuff but like at work when talking to someone new or a coworker, them knowing I have a stutter it's hard to not think of them only seeing me as the stutter guy. Idk it's just in my head, I feel that way alot of the times, with family it's different cause of the relationship we already have, same with certain friends, but you can tell when they just treating you differently than others
