How was your coming out story?

How was your coming out story? I have been a covert stutterer for my entire life, and im now 19 years and im wondering if i should start to tell people. Right now, im the quiet and social awkward guy, but i do believe that if i tell others about my problem i would not have any problem beeing social. Is there any others here who has been hiding their stutter for a long time, and then told people? How did they react. The main reason i dont want to tell people is because here in my country, people arent very avare of stuttering and it is sort of looked at as mental weakness/social anxiety.
