I don’t think there’s another way of curing it besides accepting it and gaining a more positive outlook on life and increasing your feeling of self worth. The more you try to hide your stuttering the more your mind will try to retreat to a safe place, which just reinforces to your brain that you’re in danger, which then increases the stuttering more. It’s a cycle that you can only break out if by at the very least, owning who you are in general. But more specifically, owning that you stutter and just say it plain out, objectively to other people that you do
