I'm new here. 37/M. I have always stuttered. My dad stuttered when he was young but when away. I get the blocks. I love telling stories and jokes. I feel like I'm a real people person. If I had a nickel for every story I held back due to my stuttering I'd be rich. I hold back because 1) it is literally tiring 2) I'm afraid people will lose interest due to how long it takes and me feeling awkward after.
