I got my first job at a hospital. stuttered since 6th grade. of course I was nervous a lot because of my stutter. I definitely stuttered a lot. but I realized that nobody really cared and it was up to me to keep going. Eventually I started speaking to people who was just walking. Then, made a goal to have a conversation with someone every week. Eventually made another goal to talk to 1 girl a week.. built up a lot of confidence. 4 years later im a supervisor in a hospital that requires a lot of communication with workers and other people needing stuff done. I still stutter but it's ok
