I am 23 and my life is also filled with anxiety. Especially speech anxiety.. I fear thinking about my future and what I am going to do job-wise. I want fulfillment in my work later, but I do not know if I can achieve my dreams given the circumstances I find myself in. I am currently a masters-degree student in Germany working a part time student job. Even though I am not yet in the „real“ job-market. In my experience we tell ourselves that things are not possible because of the stutter. I thought I would have a hard time finding a girlfriend. But I found someone lovely who accepts me for who I am. Before interviewing for the student job I did not think I would have a real chance. But that was not the case either. Even though stuttering is a problem, I feel that the biggest obstacle is that what you tell yourself you can not do. The truth is that other people do not care as much about your stuttering as you do yourself.
