High paying careers for severe stutterers? I’m about to get my AA in Communications. My original path was to go into technical writing. I’m now finding out that it’s a pretty speech-heavy field and that I probably wouldn’t do well. Seems like I wouldn’t do well in any career that requires frequent verbal communication. For the people here who make $90k+, what do you do for work? I’m thinking about switching over to Computer Science because I feel like having hard skills will make me undeniable and my speech won’t matter as much but I’m not particularly intrigued by coding. However, I just want to be successful and I don’t want to continue struggling with speech for the rest of my life. I can’t even say my name when someone asks. CS is interesting but I went to high school in Florida so my math skills are a bit shit. My parameters for a job are ranked by importance as follows: my speech won’t hold me back, the job pays well, remote/WFH opportunities. Please don’t give me the whole “you can do anything” BS because I’ve been severely stuttering my entire life and I’ve found time and time again that I CAN’T do just anything. My speech impediment is never going to go away so I have to work around it. I feel really lost right now, hope you guys can help me out.
