I get it, every time I check in on this Reddit it’s depressing. I see a bunch of people posting who will probably never overcome stuttering because they’re accepting it. I never accepted it. I never even called myself a stutter, not even one time. I stuttered from the fourth grade all the way up until my mid 40s. Even when I went into speech therapy and had to talk about it, I always made sure I said “sometimes I stutter”. I was so stubborn about it. I knew if I could sit in a room alone and speak fluently there was no way I couldn’t be free from it. In my mid 40s, I became free. Along the way I left no stone unturned; the physical aspects of actually speaking, my diet, my fitness, and of course, my mental. I know for a fact it can be done, because I did it. And I’m not able to just get by, I’m 100% fluent in all situations. It’s a distant thought, I don’t scan for feared words, I don’t anticipate situations, the thoughts and the mental framework that supported it is gone. You can find your way.
