I have a stutter block when it comes to my name presenting myself or being asked for my name mortifies me and it has stopped me from pursuing jobs and different experiences lately though from reading peoples stories and different ways of handling things I’ve come up with a few good ideas like presenting my i.d. Or spelling it out or simply just going by my last name so I got a metal business card made with something simple like hello my name is and with a small message stating I have a stutter block and anxiety when it comes to introductions and plan on presenting that whenever I feel anxious or nervous about introducing myself hopefully eventually I won’t need it but for now this has taken a lot of my anxiety away
