I’m kinda in the same situation as you I recently started a new college with brand new people apart from my one friend that I knew from my old school. At first I was apprehensive and I didn’t speak that much but now I’ve made like 10new friends(bear in mind I’ve been there for like a week. When I feel like I’m going to stutter I take a breath and acknowledge that the person infront of me is the same as me which helps me reduce my stutter I think of the situation as if I don’t speak I will end up in the same situation as my old school where I wasn’t known that much so the factor for me wanting to be somewhat popular motivated me to speak Overall I just want to say that you shouldn’t be ashamed of your stutter as it makes you you and that now matter how hard you try you will always have it Now go out there and make some new friends!
