Stuttering is not just frustrating but it is also tiring. Yesterday me and a bunch of friends hang out for a education fair and of course I stuttered/blocked speech. My friends asked me what I want to do in university. I know what I want to do and what I am gonna do but in the end I just say IDK. It is because it takes so much of my energy to even began the first syllable and when I want to go to the second syllable is just...It was like '' N-n-n-n-n-Doc-c-c-tor''. Plus, I see all my other friends getting a part time jobs and actually making progress with their life and I'm just here sitting at home playing games because of my stutter. fuck man. I can't even order food, talk to my grandparents/cousins, say jokes to my friends, ask an employee about something when I'm shopping or even talk to the opposite gender. Why did god want to give me a stutter, what did I do to deserve this...
