I feel you pain. I'm sure we can all sympathize with feeling closed off from the world. Struggling with tasks that come naturally to others is emotionally taxing. Last year I was interviewing for jobs. I found it helpful to be very up front about me stutter. I would often mention it after my first block. I would explain ice got a bit of a stutter and it especially acted up during events like interviews. People we generally understanding. I felt this method gave me the opportunity to set expectations early and not leave them wondering about what was going on. Good luck.
