commentr/StutterOctober 28, 2018

Content

I relate a lot, and after all these years I’ve done my own ways of avoiding stutter which has caused me to pronounce some letter wrong and other stuff so I do look like someone with severe autism when I stutter sometimes. I hate my stutter, I want to be extroverted like I am but my stutter pushes me back so much I end up being an introvert. I was a complete mute in school.
