I’m gonna tell a quick story. When I was 18 (senior in HS) in English class we had to read like 6 plays. I got picked to be the king in I think it was MacBeth. I was losing my cool (because I had to r...

People like James Earl Jones and Samuel L Jackson stuttered and credit acting for helping them deal with it. FYI. Maybe ask your GC for an option to leave after giving it a few weeks try?...
