That's really scary. Since your dad's a doctor, did you ask him about any kind of anxiety medications that you can take? High blood pressure is really dangerous. We also have a device for measuring bp...

Worse, A LOT worse - i had one a week ago and completely messed up despite all the preparation. The interviewers seemed emphatic but... of course I didn't make it to the next round. Typical really - ...

Is your fluency worse during Zoom interviews?

Is your fluency worse during Zoom interviews? I have some very important Zoom interviews coming up and I'm nervous about them :/ I'm a covert stutterer but the anxiety of these Zoom interviews is brin...

It was so hard and I tried for months!! In my interview I always puked because I was so afraid of stammering through everything and bombing it but somehow I got it. I got through the hardest part of i...

It depends on the person. I just finished a year long speech therapy course where I had 1 meeting a week with a speech therapist. Even though I saw improvement, it bothered me throughout the process h...

Guys!!! First day at my new job and it went a lot better than I thought I woke up so terrified of messing up and stuttering over my words when talking to customers. It was my first day and I was trai...
