Stuttering in college

Stuttering in college I’m just exhausted. I’ve (F20) had a stutter pretty much ever since I could talk and now that I started my first year of college, I’ve noticed how much it has worsened. Even at home when I talk to my mom I just have speck blocks and I squint my eyes when I can’t say a word. Especially now in college, I feel like people just judge me because of it and I made zero friends. I’m so tired of it, stuttering itself makes me feel exhausted and out of breath and mentally it’s draining. That was my rant, thanks for reading.
