Meetings can be so bad. I am currently interning at a company and with the lockdown situation going on there are so many meetings being held everyday and with my stutter i just feel like i should be doing something in which i can atleast be happy. Not suffer everyday trying to get my words out. It just got to the point where i took my day off today from work so that i could just sit at home and relax and not struggle for the entire day. I have tried to accept my stutter but it's just not happening. I just can't see myself like this. I have so many plans to finish my masters degree and settle abroad but it all looks so bleak with this problem of mine. I have tried speech therapy a couple years back but it never worked. Instead i got really conscious of my stutter and it's gotten worse.
