Hi there! So I have a severe block stutter caused by anxiety/nervousness/PTSD. I am fine in situations/people that I am comfortable around but if I am not...I get very anxious or caught off guard and then my mouth opens to speak and moves....but the words don't come out. We've all been there right? So here's my question.

What kind of jobs do you have with your stutter?

I am my early 40's and have worked in the medical field for nearly 20 years now. I want to migrate from working in an medical facility with patients 1:1 to working remotely, but the problem is I don't know anyone who will hire anyone with a stutter for a remote position? I am at a loss on what to do for my speech impediment. Do I disclose that I have a stutter in my cover letter so I don't make a fool of myself and lead the employer on? Or would that take a risk of being over looked all together?

I really love my current job, my patients and my employer....but I am to the point where I need a change. I want to do something else, something more than take vitals, get coughed on and fax paperwork lol

Any suggestions would be very welcoming! 😊
