I don't remember stuttering as a kid, but my parents said I've always stuttered. I was a slow learner in terms of language and didn't read till 8 I think I didn't start speaking till 4... My stutter was at its worst between 14-18. Highschool was a nightmare for me, I learnt to control it and mentally overcame the fear by 23ish. I still struggle everyday with it at 27 but, it's controllable
