My stutter is getting severe? Idk if it’s anxiety but I hesitate to get my words out at times and block severely. Or don’t even say a certain word or even talk at all. it’s embarrassing and it’s affecting my work life…I’m embarrassed to work (I’m unemployed) and even interact with others. It’s making me depressed and just don’t want to be here anymore. I’m currently taking medication…can’t say specific one because of mods I just hope it works
