Hi, I had a stutter in grades 3-5 and it went away when I entered middle school and gained some confidence in myself. In my senior year of high school I had a lot of anxiety about entering a new chapter in my life and it came back. I’m turning 20 this year and I’ve regained my confidence and it’s gotten a lot better since. Now, I really only stutter in front of strangers sometimes when I’m anticipating a hard word to say. If you’re only now experiencing it in 7th grade you probably have the same thing as I. I think in the long term you’ll be alright kid. I’m rooting for you and wishing for the best.
