Let me express my sympathy for how you are feeling right now: I have been there, and I know it really, really sucks. I have always stuttered, and still do today. In HS, I was in the same position as you - having anxiety problems and feeling generally shitty. However, you must know that it can and will get better. I completely agree with /u/phiber_optic0n - you have to adopt a 'taking no shit' attitude'. I think generally, it is easy for stutterers to make stuttering a too big part of their identity. Sure, people will notice it - and there is nothing you can do about that. So why care about something you cannot make anything about? Do not let stuttering affect you actions, making you more quiet and reserved than you want to be. Because that is what people will notice more than you stuttering. It is also easy to make stuttering into an excuse not to take space. People will only be impressed if you do things that is outside of your comfort zone - especially girls. To conclude, I too hated my stuttering in HS, but now I barely think about it anymore, although I still stuttering quite a lot. Feel free to PM me if you need more support! :)
