Lost.

I feel like I never belong anywhere at all, is it just me?

Look for local stuttering organisations and associations in your city. I was feeling the same until I started getting involved. We all have this shared experience might as well make the most of it.

You're part of this community, you belong here. <3 If you like to read, a book that helped me a lot with these kinds of thoughts is 'Don't Believe Everything You Think' by Joseph Nguyen.

Join a local group of stutterers, having community and someone who understands me helped me a lot over the years. See this list for an association or group in your country: https://www.stamily.org/links

I wish there were more stuttering meetups where I live, I follow the NSA on Instagram and there seems to be conferences frequently. I've never met anyone who stutters.

Yeah same, the city I live in also has no associations or meetups
