"Seems like most people in my position commit suicide."Firstly, please don't suggest things like that... really not called for. The cause of stuttering still isn't known. I don't think every form of stuttering should be treated equally. I don't like to compare myself to others but it's true, some people say that they 'stutter' but to me, they don't stutter at all... 'stuttering' is just a catchall term that applies to people who have slightly interrupted speech and people like you and me who block on almost every word. What therapy works for the mildly affected vs the greatly affected might not translate. I think for people with mild stutters, therapy might actually work. Like you, I have been through speech therapy and it has done nothing notable for me really. I have learned a few techniques that do help me control my stutter more, like deep breathing and elongating words.
