Great writing, it resonates a lot with what I'm going through. I believe self-acceptance (accepting yourself with your stuttering) and accepting that it's okay to stutter, also standing to your stuttering and talking with others about it is a crucial part in overcoming some of the burdens of stuttering. It's also something that I've found to be one of the common lessons from all the stuttering documentaries I've watched, and also one of the main lessons from my speech therapist. I of course have situations, days, etc. where it's a challenge, but step by step (mostly forward steps :D) and slowly, but it gets better. Wishing you all the best on your future stuttering journey!
