Is it just constantly bad or is there periods where it gets better? I too have had a stutter since childhood, I am 39 now. There's been periods that just seem horrible, and periods where it just about goes away or i just seem to figure it out. However iv been a professional tattoo artist since 2000 so I'm forced to talk to people everyday and sell them on the tattoo they are wanting. The I sound is particularly hard so everytime I have to ask for an ID is a pain, I usually just say drivers license which is a little easier. Anyhow, sometimes I get so worried I won't be able to get through a day and from time to time people decline to get tattooed. Probably a few weekly. But people who get to know me or a lot of people have a relative that stutters and they say something and it just gets easier and easier. But still there's always new people also. But anyway, I guess I'm just saying think positive. If I go into a day smiling and being positive most people will feel your vibes and be comfortable. Best of luck man, u got this!!!
