Struggling with my stutter and confidence

Struggling with my stutter and confidence Hey all, 23 years old and have a stutter my whole life. I’m usually able to take it in my stride, being that it’s a part of who I am and that’s it etc. Have a full time job, switched jobs a few times, in my first job especially, I got on so well with everyone and was able to talk to them all with ease, it felt amazing. In my current job, I’m finding it a lot harder to feel comfortable with my co workers, this normally takes a while for me anyway but I find myself being so much more embarrassed about my stutter and trying so hard not to show it, to the point that I could easily spend a whole day not saying a single word to anyone. Sometimes my co workers will try and chat to me but I find myself almost getting completely stuck and can hardly get a word out. I don’t know if it’s more of a stutter issue or just anxiety/self confidence in general, but if anyone has any advice it would be very much appreciated, like I said, I just feel so stuck. Thanks in advance
