Same here, Im 18 and I've stuttered through my teen years and I've seen worse worse days where my own siblings would mock me. I still stutter but its much much better than how I used to stutter 1 or 2 years ago. I still remember I used to get hurt so badly when I had something funny or interesting to say but then I was like 'nevermind'. I would cry the nights and pray for a miracle. Now Im 18 and things have gotten far better for me. The trick is to overcome your anxiety first, trust me, I had very very bad speech blocks on words starting with 'p' or 'th'. Try acting like you feel confident and I promise you'll do much much better. I think we could be great friends since we both have the same background, always feel free to DM. I wish you best of luck in this journey of yours Regards, Fellow stutterer
