>>40342>>40342>odds are that it's a pretty bad stutter if you think your friends will immediately make fun of you for it.No, given OP complain on 4chan and is paranoid even before trying, it's probably pretty minor.
OP, nobody's perfect. My nose is weird, I stopped giving a fuck a while ago. I can't remember exactly what my thoughts were, but I basically decided that I was ugly, couldn't do shit about it, and that fucking normies would have to face the horrors of mine, that'll teach 'em.
Turns out, nobody notice my nose is weird. Beside, maybe, face surgeons.
Tell your friends you feel bad about your stutter and ask them to not mock it when you're here.
You can't do shit about talking behind your back anyway, you may as well ignore the very existence of these talks.
If they aren't fucking idiots, they won't mock you. They're not perfect either. They're just more confident about their problems, ignore them, or ignore the fact they have a problem.
Also, take theatre lessons. Yes, it sound counter-intuitive. The point is for you to get confidence in front of other people.
Or, if you can't get confident, to learn to fake it. That's a big secret about confidence : you can bluff it. Half the actors you see on a stage are close to shitting themself when walking in and delivering their first line, but once they do and the crowd does not erupt in laugher pointing at them, the fear and anxiety goes away.
World renowned musicians start with a tremolo.
Well, call a theatre school, they can help as much as a orthophonist or whatever a voice doctor is called, and it's probably cheaper.
