Hiya! I think I began exhibiting abnormal speech at about the same age. It's been so long, so I can't quite remember, but it's a common enough onset age, I think. >I went to a lot of therapy's and yes it helped but **it didn't do the full job** If you thought speech therapy was about becoming _fluent_, I can see why you'd be disappointed. Fluency can't be guaranteed - but stutter management can be improved. That's an important function of speech therapy. Maybe controlling your speed and breath will work for you. If not, do give speech therapy another go. Some people are able to surpass it eventually, but others need to keep working on it. Stutter varies that way (as you say yourself, "everyone stutters differently). >it began with me when **I copied** my dads breathing behavior once and it began Note that stutter isn't your fault or failure on your part. It's not something you're doing wrong or not doing. It's just stutter, and it manifests at various times. It's good to see you've taken a stance towards your stutter, because it shows you're committed. However, even if you never get rid of it entirely, you should know that it's quite possible to live with a stutter. Lots of people do so. Have a look at this thread that was posted in here recently: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stutter/comments/8qmf8n/my_experiences_during_stutter_therapy/ - it notes some good points.
