I have hid my stutter for as long as I can remember and I would recommend not doing what I did. I have developed such an anxiety because of it that has destroyed my social life. I’m an introvert naturally so I never felt alone but I can see how it stopped me from having a better experience overall. I got a job doing cold call sales and that made me get over it really quick and I can say I’m much better off not caring about my stutter as much.
