Told my coworkers :) It was awkward, not even gonna lie. But I feel a huge weight off of my chest. From their reaction, I’m 100% sure that they already knew, but the fact that I’m no longer feeling angst about their opinions of my speech is enough for me to not regret it. It’s awkward but I highly recommend disclosing your stutter. You leave no room for judgement (them thinking you’re nervous or rude or lack communication skills etc) and you feel wayyy more comfortable. I’m actually not afraid to talk to my coworkers now 🥳
