It's a mixture of intense depression and anger for me!!! That's a total understatement!!! I tend to hide out a lot!! Definately not looking forward to turkey day with the fam when I won't be able to chat!! I don't see the point In going!! Only reason Im going is because I have to go and I'm still alive!!! I have gone to so many speech therapy's enuf times!!!! It's nothing but relapses after temporary improvement!!! I mean the answer is delayed auditory feedback--I am unable to hear myself with a slight echo and that is whats causing me to stutter massive!!!! Folks are giving me crap about it "slow down" "spit it out".."are you OK"....I just want to tell them\_"i just want to die already-you dont know what it's like and you can't help"--The answer to my problem is right there...delayed auditory feedback...a small microphone is not picking up my voice and echoing it!!!!
