After learning the techniques I am about to share with you, I was able to start speaking fluently and confidently without having to go back to visit my speech therapist ever again.
I been having thoughts of suicide…?
Hi. I'm 17 years old and i been haveing these thoughts of suicide and i really don't know what to do. My reasons for it make me feel pretty sad every day. Here are my reasons.
I'm ashamed of the way i look, I don't feel like i'm good looking even though i'm told i am.
I have a speech problem (stuttering) i have very little to no friends at all cause of it plus because of this problem i'm sure it will make my chances of getting a job very low.
Never had a girlfriend cause of the stuttering and the way i think i look.
I have a poor education, i droped out of school in the 5th grade and thats the most depressing thing i have in my life right now, I did it cause i didnt like the way i was treated, My parents wanted me to go back but i just flipped out when i went to school.
I wanted to make my family proud you know like i wanted to finish school go to colledge and make something of myself but insted i feel so worthless like whats the point of being here when i have nothing going for me at all.
What should i do?

now if people tell you you are good looking it means you are, if you do not like somethings try to change your image like get a new style haircut or something.
about dropping from school is there any way you can go back? if not try to do some courses in what you like. try to take photography courses , or veterinary or something you will think you will be good at.
I have aFriendn who isStutteringg and he has a loads ofFriendss and aGirlfriendd too, it has nothing to do with youstutteringg it is yourself you are too selfconsciouse.

I have received compliments from time to time. Also,when I was younger I had a bad stuttering problem. I underwent years of speech
therapy when I was in elementary school. For the most part I conquered my stammer,but to this day when I'm under stress it comes
back. I have grown to accept it will always be with me. It shakes my
confidence as well.
It's natural to have thoughts of suicide when you're depressed-there
have been times I have felt the urge myself. But I'm still here and am glad for it-there would have been so many things I would have missed out on if I had taken the easy way out.
I personally have seen the devastating effect a person's suicide can have on those left behind. When I was 29,a person who I grew up with and had been good friends with in high school committed suicide.
I will never forget how his family all huddled together and wept during
the burial,it was a terrible thing to see. The suffering was over for him-I hope-but it was just beginning for those he left behind,especially his
mother. It was a selfish,terrible thing for him to do. After that,I have
never been tempted to do it.
If your lack of education depresses you,you can fix it. There must be a way to get your diploma,maybe home study. After that,you can study
at some college on-line. You do need to get out there and get a job,
don't let your stutter defeat you in life. You can conquer it,although
it will always be there. Be strong,you have more going for you than you think. The important thing is,don't give up,you have your whole life ahead of you. You may find it hard to believe,but I envy you,I would give
anything to be 17 again,and your problems are not insurmountable.
Take care and good luck. I hope things get better for you.

Hello,
I definitely know what you are going through. I have stuttered ever since I can remember, and although it has weakened my confidence when it comes to conversations, I have learnt to play around with it (by being funny and caring, asking others what they are interested in, and thinking what I’m going to say before I say stuff).
I know suicide my seem like the easy way out, but like others have said before, there is so much to look forward to at such a young age. Whether you believe it or not you will achieve what you set your mind to. Plus if you think you have it bad, think about those poor kids who get meningitis and lose all their limbs.
What you have to realise in life, is that people will like you for who you are as a person. The good people will look past your stutter and attempt to get to know you on a personal level.
My advice for you is write a list of the things you want to do in your life right now. Find out what is required to do those things and get started, one thing at a time. If you want a girlfriend go out and find one. Start talking to every girl you come across. There’s no point saying “I’m not going to get a girl because she’ll hate me for my stutter”. The fact is that you tried, and if you get rejected, it shows you the girl wouldn’t be interested anyway. There will be someone out there for you, trust us.
Go out into the world and experience the beauty of it, and remember that there will be people who are there to support you through the tough times and people to share with you, the good times.
Head up buddy, we are here for you.
Take care,
Tommy
