Why i feel so low when i stammer. I had a great month or two when my new semester started in july i was answering sir questioning(not individually like when Sir ask me but used to answer passively). At that time I used to wake up at 5:30 workout some how living healthy(both with mind and body). I had very less stammer then and i started to love speaking and interacting(passive) in class. Now in mid-end semester I am having severe stammering situations with very low self esteem. Not working out regularly but I am reding Malcolm Fraser's Self therapy book. I am having a hard time since last 3 weeks. I am not loving this phase. I am highly ambitious guy, i want to do big in life, make my parents proud but this thing keeps lowering my confidence. This is tough to live with. I repeat alphabets like a stupid guy. I will be sitting for placements in 6 months, I have to reduce stammering.
