I feel you. The best advice I can give is to do things without thinking about them, it'll help you worry less and prepare more for something you really want to do. My original example isn't a good e...

Yeah I do that often sadly but I cant change it :/...

Ever passed on an event / opportunity because you were nervous about stuttering? I've had a stutter my whole life, and it's never made that much of an impact until I realised I was saying no to opport...

Birthdays have been a struggle for me too. You can get around it with "13th of August" or "13th of the 8th". I had problems with "friends" laughing at me in high school too. It just makes you realise ...

Totally off topic, but why is it that I see a +1 next to your name? ...

yeah you cant ignore things like this. you dont have to be the lead juror though....
