Having self-pitty won't change anyting about your currently situation. Don't give up and take it easy on yourself. Having a stutter doesn't mean it has to hold you back, it Just means you'll have to work a little harder to get where you want. Try going out and talk to People. If you don't do something bc of your stutter, do it anyway. Don't let you stutter dictate your life. No, it's not easy and yes there Will be akward and embarasing situations but who cares?
