I went to speech therapy myself and overtime and especially through high school it got a bit rough not to mention the situation at work. I realized that the more I thought about it the more anxious i got for when i had to say something. Here are somethings that worked for me. - try not to get hyper focused on thr fact that you might stutter. - Read books or anything out loud - Voice acting classes: It helped me break out of my shell and not be so self concious. - Swimming and Yoga: Practicing this in my free time and learning how to breath deeper using my diaphram helped me control my stutter. - Talking to strangers / calling people / speaking up more. I found practicing a script made it worse. So i just winged it. To be honest it wad never as bad as i thought my anxiety just got to me. - Getting a job at a call center : Now this was rough. I remember my hands shaking with anxiety and crying before heading to work. I use to panic over everyday and going to sleep thinking i had to do it all again was rough. But it did get easier. It felt good knowing that eachday i wad doing something i was afraid of and it helped build my confidence. I remember when i left the job thinking that i was going to miss it.
