Hey, I am 24F. I am going through exactly the same thing and even though i really want to support my family financially(as we have been struggling from past 8 yrs) i am not able to muster up the courage to face the interviews. I do speech therapy daily but not seeing any positive results which disheartens me so much so that i go in the loop of criticizing, condemning and battering myself harshly. Every night i sleep trying to be positive about everything and thinking that tomorrow will be different but it never is. I am stuck in that loop everyday and the intensity keeps on amplifying each passing day. I dont know how to do it. I feel like a burden to my family(they never make me feel that way, it's my own problem). Life was so much better when i didn't know what stammering which was up till 5th standard(when i used to take part in speeches, role plays, hosting school events). I loved speaking in front of everyone until i didn't. idk if it's ever going to be okay. idk if i'll ever be able to accept the fact that i stutter. i dont want to be vulnerable in front of anyone but telling anyone that i stammer feels like i am exposing myself. Idk. Ughh. I want to be better at it...the acceptance part but i dont want to tell anyone that i stammer when i meet them.
