I can't live like this anymore. Stuttering destroyed my life forever. despite all attempts to heal, it is progressing more and more every year. I don't have the strength to fight anymore. all the teenage years were spent on useless attempts to just learn to talk like all people, to be part of society, to achieve my goals, to have a good job. But now I'm 20. I thought it would be like a new beginning. And I'm always trying to stay positive. but now I no longer have the strength and energy. now I will direct all my energy to ensure myself a quiet, modest life alone without social interaction so as not to go crazy even more. I would also like to ask you. Which job is best suited for severe stutterer? Next year I will graduate from the university with a degree in accounting. But because of the low level of intelligence (I have very poor grades, and I've been bad at math all my life) and the inability to talk I won't be able to work and I won't be perceived as a specialist
