My exact experience at university! It’s so nice to hear that someone else out there is sharing my exact same struggles! Everything you said is so valid and relatable and I also cannot bear that stupid feeling of inferiority!!! It’s had such a big impact on me and now that I’m in second year it’s been affecting me more and more. We’re all here, we’re all equally smart and ambitious. And yet I struggle to pronounce my surname or even the stupid course I’m doing. Makes me feel like an idiot even though I know it’s not true! You’ve mentioned dating and I’m sorry things have turned that way, I completely quit the idea of dating anyone any time soon. I’d recommend you do the same thing? Dating for us can bring us more negative thoughts than positive but again, just basing it from my own experience! In a nutshell the promised university dream student fun life is just an undercover hell for people like us. And like you said, even if you have some friends, unless they stutter, they will never understand it! I strive for the days I graduate and hopefully secure a better job and try to find some stability and start from there 💗
