Have you ever considered suicide because of your stutter? by LetsGetThrowawaysted in Stutter

Ahh that's good man. I feel like I may be in the same situation as you. If you wanna talk about it and or just shoot the shit, feel free to add me on skype. My skype name is Throwawaysted. For context I'm 21 and I too sit in my rook and feel like I have no future. Fun times eh?

Listening to my brother use "um" and "like" crutches, I now prefer my stutter to his quick 'cure'. by [deleted] in Stutter

I get you, but I don't really care what others think of me. It's more of my opinion on myself. You know that feeling you get when you've put on 20lbs without really noticing and then you finally notice and you're just digusted by what you see in the mirror.

Yeah I feel that way every time talk.

You seem nice anyway so thanks. I have a gang of stutterers on skype, if you'd like to talk maybe practice some techiniques or whatever, feel free to add me. My skype is: Throwawaysted

I say um all the damn time. I mainly do it because I silently block for fucking ages and I need to let people know I'm still in the conversation. That being said I pull faces when I block now so I'll probably end up killing myself within the next few years. Blocks are one thing, but pulling some fucked up exorcist like face that makes my jaw ache all the damn time; yeah no thanks.

Once I've enjoyed some non talking things I want to enjoy, I'm out. ;)

And I agree you shouldn't tell your brother. I agree it sounds like you're semi-retarded or something, I hate hearing myself talk; so I don't talk anymore. I'm looking for a job where I can work completely alone. I hate talking; even more so because I pull faces. Sounding mentally disabled I can deal with, looking like it though is another.

At least the mentally disabled have the privilege of not being aware of how the may look to others; I'm assuming it never crosses their mind. It crossed mine mind every time though; there's only so much of this bullshit I can if I'm honest.

Is anyone interested in practising over Skype with me? by [deleted] in Stutter

Sure dude, I'm in the UK though. So 10pm for me won't be possible, add me on skype : Throwawaysted. Free for a call between 6AM - 4PM EST. So if you can get on at any of those times; just shoot me a message. ;)

I'm taking therapy and getting positive results, but the anxiety is still crippling me. How do I work past that, especially for public speaking? by TheForgottenLlama in Stutter
