i feel completely stupid for giving up on my college presentation
i’ve cried so much and had so many breakdowns because of this assignment that i couldn’t even put together a coherent thought about what i was going to say. every time i tried to think about how to talk about my topic (which wasn’t even difficult), i would start crying and get extremely anxious, so i’d put it off until the next day and avoid it as much as possible because just thinking about actually giving a presentation causes me so much distress.
and all of this because of my stutter. it affects me on such a terrible level. i’m seriously starting to wonder if i’ll even be able to graduate from college.
i don’t have a severe stutter, in fact, most of the time it’s barely noticeable, but when i have to speak in public, it’s a complete disaster. once, after i gave a presentation, a professor told me, “that almost didn’t come out hahaha.”
