extroverts, tap in! i believe stuttering is even more frustrating as an extrovert. i think a lot of people that don’t know me assume i’m really shy and reserved because i don’t try to initiate a full-on conversation, but do you know how bad i want to constantly talk 24/7 and share my ideas with other people? i sometimes hold myself back and give my friends the stage when i’m hanging out with them, but i’m a monster in group chats and texting in general ;) anyway, just wanted to see if anyone else here can relate? just some thoughts i wanted to spill out.
