How to not feel alone when I'm broken There are times when I just want to give up. Stuttering has made me depressed and has given me anxiety. Constant stress and low self esteem has made me not want to live and to succeed in my life. I don't have motivation and the only person I can talk to about this is my gf. And she doesn't understand the feeling i get when i stutter. I have mastered taking pauses and completing sentences at my pace without having to stutter. But it takes lots of energy. After even a small conversation my head would be spinning. I can't laugh or be natural when i speak otherwise i would stutter. My gf thinks since i dont stutter much i should be happy. But what she doesn't understand is how difficult it is for me to speak to other people and be cool. Oftenly people think I'm reserve, rude, afraid etc. What people percieve me to be depends on how bad my stutter is that day. If my stutter is too bad i straight up avoid meeting or talking to anyone. I simply hate my life. And i feel like i am alone and i have no one to discuss or share my problems.
