First of all I think you’re an amazing sister and that he could really use your help but he’s just too scared to ask. Honestly I think forcing him to apply to unis or to jobs might trigger his anxiety...

It might help if you guys start kind of a self improvement plan together. A plan that involves exercising, diet, doing chores, and having a good sleep schedule (going to sleep early and getting up ear...
I am glad that he has you as a support system. I agree with the previous post, keep engaging him and search out support groups so that he knows that he is not alone....
Well done, being able to go from having a severe stammer to talking fluently isn’t something that should be taken lightly. You should be very proud of yourself👏🏽...

My first week of university
My first week of university I put myself out of my comfort zone multiple times. I talked to the bus driver every day, I went to a bar, I talked to people in my degree. I feel like I should feel proud ...
This is great advice, whenever people would ask me “How are you”, I would usually reply something like “Good, thanks”. But then I pushed myself to ask them the same thing back simply, and even somethi...
On top of the head I can think few points. 1)I always think that I am atleast this good that the other person is taking his time out to interview me. It’s increases my self-worth as well gives me som...

I know what you are going through and please do not put so much pressure on yourself. When I had to defend my master's thesis, I practiced for weeks every single day until it became muscle memory. A...
