I wanted to quit college too. I wrote a letter to my parents explaining how I was sorry for wasting their money, etc. I never gave it to them, but my Mom found it one day and we had a long talk. My parents said it's my choice, I can do whatever I feel like I need to do, but they think I should stick it out regardless of how difficult it was. I did, graduated near the top in my class, found an awesome career, got married (divorced now, but can't win them all) and so on. I have had a stutter my whole life. I worked with a guy who I thought was a literal genious at one point, he stuttered. My oral surgeon from the UK stutters. I'm telling you, don't give up. Fuck other people. Do you. We are everywhere and you'll find us at the most unexpected times in your life. Good luck my friend.
