I do not stutter but am a speech therapist who has worked with people who stutter. First, I can’t imagine how frustrating it is to stutter and I am sorry it’s causing you pain/anxiety. If you live in the US you can receive support from the speech therapist at your public school for free! I’m not sure what the case is for charter or private schools but I believe you’re still entitled to access to a speech therapist. The same is true if you’re home schooled. Because of disability laws and red tape surrounding the public school system, they may not be able to work with you on a weekly or monthly basis but you can still talk to them to get strategies and support. They may also be able to connect you with other people who stutter in your area if you find that helpful. You can also look into private speech therapy that may be covered by insurance if that’s something you or your parents can’t pay out of pocket. Secondly, I’m not going to pretend living with a stutter is like nothing and won’t impact your life because that’s dismissive. I do want to point out that many people with stutters are successful. Drew Lynch is a fabulous comedian who stutters. I went to school with an aspiring speech therapist who has a stutter. He was truly one of the best in our class and however ironic it may seem, is a fabulous therapist despite being a person who stutters. One of the audiologists at the school I work for has a stutter. You can YouTube people who stutter and find a large community which may make you feel less alone, or that might not be your thing which is totally fine too. Lastly, sometimes singing or performing makes people’s stutters disappear. You could join a choir or musical, or try theater, or join the speech team, etc, and that could make you feel more comfortable speaking in front of others. Being 15 is hard, and on top of that, having a stutter I’m sure makes it even harder. Keep connecting with people who stutter like you did here as they’re truly going to have the best advice. Best of luck!
