I like to think that I am a pretty confident person, and can handle intimate situations well. But.. I have a minor/medium speech impediment. I frequently stutter. Its not just like an "uhh" or a "whaa" its bad. For example: "how are you d-d-doing today?" it makes me sound nervous, and not assertive. I could be in a situation where I am completely comfortable and my stuttering just makes me sound like a nervous geek. I know the rule of thumb " well if you think you sound like a nervous geek you are a nervous geek! " i understand that, but thats not the point. Any ideas/experienced speech impediment persons that can help me? Thanks.
