Stress during your college days ,first job search stress, catching a girl to marry. These are peak tensions happenings between 18 to 25. Once you get a stand alone job (job that does not involve more talking like a software programmer), lovely wife and children , isolating yourself from bad people that time you will start living in your independent world. You will get to know as you age more. Now at my 40, I rarely feel stressed about stuttering as I don't care for any mfucker other than my family , I feel matured and accepted my stuttering and very well know how to control awkward situations caused by stuttering. Think yourself always superior compared to others and say yourself that you are better than others.
