There is no magical cure, the cure is changing the way you view your stutter. You can stop stuttering if you ease the "don't stutter, it's bad" pressure that you put on yourself. In fact, you don't even have to stop stuttering completely, people only notice the extreme cases of stuttering when you can't say a single word. My stutter is moderate, but I can say that I'm living a full life. I even landed a good job offer recently, even though I stuttered a lot during all the interviews. Just enjoy your life, change your focus from stuttering to something you like (your hobbies, for example). Remember that stuttering is something we all face, you are not alone. We understand what you feel because most of us have the same feelings.
