I have this anxiety a lot. I have a college degree, but I freeze up during interviews. I know that it is hard, but you can still enjoy your life. You are still deserving of love. Practice advertising your stutter to people. You can do that by going to a coffee shop and saying "Hi I stutter so it may take a moment to order". Acknowledging your stutter will take the power out of our fear. It's a technique that is use to desensitize us from our stutter. I will not lie, it is really nerve racking to do at first, but I guarantee that it will help you to feel more confident about stuttering.
