This shit is so exhausting. I'm 27M and let me just say, this shit is unbearable to deal with. I was always optimistic that things would eventually get better, and well, they haven't - not even a little bit. In fact, my stutter has gotten significantly worse over the past few years. I've done speech therapy, mindful meditation, and a host of other things that are supposed to ameliorate stuttering, yet none of these worked. I don't even want to be completely fluent, just articulate enough to have a conversation without my stutter screwing me over every 5 seconds. What a fucking curse. I'm happy otherwise, it's just this stuttering shit that perpety
