I had to make an account for this. It's a normal response and the first step in overcome stuttering. A lot of the people posting videos and commenting on Reddit are young. Victim mentally is a byproduct of depression and/or anxiety. It's a normal response and a person needs to go through that stage before they are able to move on from it. Suffering/failure often leads to the spark that brings about change. Motivation does not appear from thin air. Everything you said you're basing what you see on the Internet and with a specific group of stutterers who are still struggling. There are many people who have successfully overcome stuttering who don't post YouTube videos, post on reddit, forums, etc because quite frankly they have moved on with there lives. As with anything in life, you must challenge yourself. This isn't news. However, making the step to challenge yourself starts within NOT from someone telling you to do so. Don't be that person. It's ego minded. We live in a society where people should listen more instead of telling others what to do. I've been working on my speech for a few years now. I'm happy with the progress and I work in my community with other stutterers including teenagers. I never tell them what to do or how to think. I just listen. I know it's part of their process. We can advise each other on mechanics all day but there is a psychological component that is unique and singular to each stutterer. They need to resolve that on their own time based on their life situation.
