It’s killing me So it’s been since my young age that I still hang out with the same few friends (only 2) and now we’re getting older we just joined university so both of them are starting to have a new life with new people and leave far away so they are rarely available, except me I’m still stuck in the same old life please how do we make new friends it’s very hard with my stuttering I feel like even if many people approach me when they hear my stuttering they loose interest in getting to know me they just feel sorry for me and sympathies w me. It’s quite impossible for me to keep leaving like that I feel so lonely all the time
