I'm diagnosed as a selective mute as well, a biproduct of being an aspie, but mine was worse when I got older and it didn't happen much when I was young. I didn't speak at all for three years through middle school and high school and I've now developed a stutter for some reason. I still sometimes can't force myself to talk. I was wondering if you still had issues with it? Because for me it's an ongoing struggle.

How do you deal with those who say you aren't an artist? Some people are unbelievably rude, I don't know how you put up with it.
