Lacking Confidence to Accept a New Job

Lacking Confidence to Accept a New Job I'm currently working at a small business and the environment here is perfect for my speech. I rarely interact with high level management and its also very laid ...

I notice people have a hard time understanding me clearly based on their facial expression (squinting their eyes, etc.) Other times, I have some people that have told me I mumble in the past. Conf...

Had a terrible first shift.

Had a terrible first shift. So basically I got a job at a restaurant where if you work till you have to ask a thousand questions to the customers. This, coupled with nervousness made it a terrible shi...

I haven't noticed any change in my stuttering when I drink. But my stutter mostly comes out when I'm at home with family or when I have to give presentations. When I'm out with friends, I don't normal...

I have social anxiety, mostly due to my stuttering, and none of the medications I’ve tried so far have ever really helped tbh....

What confidence? Honestly though, when I was growing up, I was really outgoing and was never afraid to put myself out there. As I’ve gotten older though, I’ve become a lot more self conscious about m...

For me. I feel like it's fueled by anxiety 80%. When I'm playing online with my friends in comfortable situation I bearly stutter. Hell, I even talk shit fluently lol but when I'm asked a question whe...
