Opinions and Experiences On Stuttering I just wanted to make this thread to see some of the experiences other people have has with stuttering. I'm a 17 year old in High School and its been kicking my ass for a good while and on this fresh account I'm hoping that I can see how other people deal and suffer from their own stutter. My stuttering is kinda inconsistent, it does happen everyday but sometimes during the day I can hold entire conversations without stuttering. This however isn't usually the case, my stutter, which my friends have nicknamed ticks, are either repeated sounds, long pauses, or intense head twitches or nods. This makes it very hard for me to approach people as it makes me feel like I'm some burden or embarrassment, I either avoid my teachers or people at school, even if i actually need to speak with them for something urgent. This has given me some pretty bad anxiety, possibly very bad depression which is what my therapist told me, and a multitude of other problems. ​
