This shit is so exhausting. I just want a job, and it seems like no matter how hard I try to get one, I end up getting rejected on account of my stutter. I graduated college three years ago and the only work I've found has been at this warehouse. My time at this place has been nothing but misery; I go in at midnight and don't leave till 9 am, then I go home, sleep for 6 hours, relax for a bit, and repeat. This kind of work just isn't sustainable in the long run, yet I feel like I have no other option than to settle with this job. I don't like to be a downer, but this stuttering shit is damn near insurmountable. My stutter fluctuates between mild and severe, without an in between. some days I can get by ok, whereas others even uttering a single sound takes tremendous effort and time. My stutter tends towards the latter when I interview unfortunately, which is why I'm in this predicament. I just can't see how I can have a successful professional life with such a debilitating disability.
