Another rant and story of my life filled with stress and anxiety I am tired of my stammering,I have very very severe stammer to the point I can't say 3-4 words without getting stuck. I have literally tried of every way I could find to reduce or cure my stutter. Even did speech therapy for 3 months, but there was literally no improvement... I am really tired of this. I can never share my thoughts and what I feel with my friends or other people, I just stand listening and afraid that I might stammer if I speak Even in college I am not able say present/yes for attendance, I get stuck and everyone around is just staring while teacher keeps repeating my name and I am not able to say anything. And don't even ask about presentations or viva... I just wanna be able to speak freely😭 I would give anything to fix this problem. I literally spend my whole day just worrying in the anxiety of my stammering and not even able to focus on my studies Any tips or advices are welcome🥲 I face severe anxiety and complete blockage btw
