Good news. Hey! Just joined to support you folks and tell you that stuttering may not last forever. I stuttered terribly all the way through high school. I used to pray for it to end…endless terror in class…you know the drill. I had speech therapy through junior high, etc. , which helped to some degree. HOWEVER, once I got to college…for some reason, it gradually started going away. Maybe it was due to increased confidence, independence…idk. But I rarely stutter now. None of my friends know I ever did it and do not notice it when I occasionally do it ow. There is hope people! Be strong!
