I actually did call myself "software engineer" today when i met a fellow stutterer on the greenway (that interaction made me want to find this subreddit). I dont mind either term since they both work for my title. I feel like i need to not overthink it and just take a deep breathe and talk slowly when asked my title. Talking slow is so weird cuz i feel like i am talking down to the other person, but in reality i sound normal speed. I just need to get used to that feeling i guess.
