It's almost like we're living in a cage, I have deeply felt and still sometimes feel it too. But then I think of people who are living in other cages, including ourselves, not because of stuttering b...

Firstly, i appreciate the sincerity of your comment. But for some, like me, the reality is not that simple. For instance, talking on the phone is a near impossibility for me, so anything to do with p...

I struggle with much the same. I can't engage with people in the way I want. I can't joke around, I can't tell interesting stories, or anything. Because it's all such a struggle and a journey to say....

Dude, trust me I know exactly how you feel. It's frustrating as hell. What sucks is that we have a disability that people don't even recognize as a disability. It's one the only disorders that people ...

I think it is the best option, but as I am now I have no chance but thank you anyway...
