Overcoming my stutter 1 year ago I put a post on here, talking about how down and depressed I was about my stuttering. I was in such a bad place and it was on my mind 24/7. I was terrified to open my mouth every time I was in conversation with someone. 1 year later I feel great and I hardly ever think about it. You get to a stage in your life when you think you know what, fuck this who gives a shit. And it worked. I feel myself stuttering alot less and confidence is flying ever since I stopped worrying. Nobody even notices it like they did before. Just goes to show it's a short term problem and it will be ok in the end. All you have to do is not worry! And it will get better.
