Challenge accepted... Hello there! I'm 17 years old and soon to be a graduate of High School. I wanted to share something spectacular I did today in my Honors English Class. We were given the choice to stand up and speak about a topic that the teacher chose for us and it was to be a minute long. I decided I wanted to get my social anxiety and fear of public speaking due to my stutter over with. So I raised my hand and volunteered. I was extremely nervous and my heart rate was up a lot and I feared that I would stutter. The topic was on science research and if it should be stopped or not. This was easy for me because I'm a scientific thinker and it wasn't that difficult to do. But, the fear of being up there with a billion eyes watching me made it difficult. So, I did the speech with 3-4% disfluency.
