I always try and turn it around and tell myself "I don't care if I stutter, everyone stutters a little here and there, im just a bit more so and there's nothing wrong with that" but it doesn't help the struggle and strain it puts on my throat, chest and a bit of my mental energy. I have another job pretty much guaranteed and I am planning to leave regardless but, if I hand in my notice now, it'll still e a week of struggle unless I can beg to be let go or something. I have a meeting with a manager to tomorrow so I'll see with them but I think I'll send in my resignation by the end of the day, or at least tomorrow at latest. I've been here for almost 2 years and I've tried different methods that have worked temporarily but nothing seems to last
