Back when I was younger My first job was at Jamba Juice. I was scared shitless of serving the drink but my manager made me do it. I won’t forget that manager. Anyways. I find that as a stutterer if you put yourself in situations that your uncomfortable with but you always put yourself there, the fear of embarrassment will dwindle. Just do it. Remember the most important fact: People who make fun of you because of your stutter really don’t matter at all, you want people who can talk and hang out with you despite your stutter, those people are the people you want to keep in your life. Don’t be scared. Get confident in yourself and eventually all will work itself out. You have to want it first. Good luck. I stutter less and less everyday and I’ve done it without speech therapy. I just assert myself. Remember that. Peace out.
