Therapy has been very helpful for me. It's helped me recognize and identify where to address the tension of my stutter (particularly blocks) in the moment. It's reduced the spike of anxiety and panic when a block hits and has greatly reduced the helplessness you feel when stuttering because you know there's a way out. I'm sorry to hear you've had poor experiences with prior speech therapists. Has your previous therapy attempts been in English or your native language? My therapist runs the local NSA chapter, if you are studying in the US, you can look to see if there's an NSA chapter near you and there's a link to the NSA's site on the sideboard of this sub. And even if there isn't one local to you, virtual options are much more ubiquitous so maybe see if any NSA chapters offer that for you? Also, reading back over my initial comment I just want to clarify that when I say I try to not "rush myself" I don't mean to just talk slower. While talking slower can be helpful, it will not prevent stuttering and it's a common misconception that it's a cure by people who don't stutter. What I mean is to not let the anxiety and panic we feel when stuttering rush you. As we all know, it's a terrible feedback loop with the anxiety of anticipating a stutter, then anxiety during a stutter which only increases the time you are in the stutter and can lead to trying to force your way through the stutter, which just makes it all worse. So don't "rush yourself" by letting the stress in the moment get to you. This is MUCH easier said then done, and I still struggle with it all the time, but getting to a place where you can accept your stutter happening in the moment and breaking that feedback loop (for me) has been a huge help. Anyways, sorry for the extra long tangent, but I hope this helps some and you are able to get in with a good therapist somewhere!
