I've had this most of my life starting at 13 yrs old. I couldn't talk when I was 13-18.

@cool09 that must be rough to handle. How did you cope and are coping with that? @CANDC

I never coped with it because it was so intense. I couldn't talk because I was so detached from myself. I felt more attached at 34 when I responded to paxil. But it still haunts me. I'll write more later. I am so hopeless. I want to cry.

I'm sorry you are feeling so hopeless @cool09, I don't know if you have ever come across this book - "Selective Mutism: In Our Own Words".
(ISBN: 9781849056366)
You might find it helpful.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
