Struggles with Stuttering Hey im new to reddit and i need a place to vent about my frustrations with my stutter. I am 29 and happily married but for whatever reason i cant get over my fear of stuttering. I have blown some really good jobs over the years because of my fear of being humiliated by my stutter. I just recently lost a really good job because of this fear and I feel like my wife is losing patience with me. I really don't know what to do. People have told me that i shouldnt worry so much but it's become such a monster in my head that i just cant overcome it. I'm frustrated, annoyed, most likely depressed and I just feel like its getting worse. I joined reddit because i felt like i could vent to others who stutter like me. The worst thing about it is that i really do enjoy speaking. Most people dont even know i stutter because i hide it well. So i really feel like this is just a mental fear more than anything. I just don't know what to do anymore. any suggestions? thanks
