Stuttering is the major reason why I find life unbearable and it will not change unless I can talk like a normal human being. No amount of positive talk can fix this issue as everyone is different whe...

"I'll be a failure because I know that I'll be a failure" is a self-fulfilling prophecy and does you no favors. To counter "everybody complaining about their lives" - I'm 40 with a wife and kids, in ...

I completely agree with what the OP said, he has shown the reality and the rest very clearly, as a young age he is. you have no right to tell someone who is being victimized while the person in questi...

What you need is some confidence, you need to grow out of this mindset you've constructed that is self sabotaging. That's not a shot at you, I understand how you feel. I have a very severe stutter mys...
