Please don’t do it. I felt this way in college where I even didn’t do my presentation for my English class and ended up with a C and was happy with it. The next English class I took, I was forced to do the presentation and got an A-. Now I’m a medical student and i I realized stuttering helped me get here. It forced me to seclude myself and work hard to compensate for my speech and yes I still stutter and it sucks. Even my college advisor told me back then it will be hard to do well in med school interviews but she was wrong. Believe in yourself mate.
