You’re right. It’s been mandatory for me to take a speech class to graduate both high school and now college. The high school one was absolutely horrid. It didn’t help me a single bit and if I’m Being honest I’m pretty sure it made my stutter ten times worse. The level of humiliation I put myself through was the worst. I swallowed my pride and got up and spoke but, it was always horrible for me and the people watching. I hope this course in college can somehow help me better regulate my anxiety because it’s gotten way worse.
