Thanks for sharing man. A big turning point for me was accepting that even if I woke up tomorrow without a stutter, my life would still be full of challenges just like everyone else. Also realizing the kind of person my stutter has made me. As you see in this whole subreddit, stutterers tend to have a whole lot more empathy than the average person. Obviously I would still love to not stutter anymore but getting past that is a crucial step in the journey IMO.
