Probably not helpful, but try and start your own business, do anything you enjoy. I have a removal company and a van hire company, its helped with my stutter massively because you have no choice but to communicate and I have embraced my stutter, it is what it is. Make a joke out of it. If you have to go for job interviews make it known on a CV you have a stutter, unless you're job is 100% customer facing I doubt its an issue in most places. I used to do a lot of pub/bar work and also helped my stutter once you get used to people taking the piss. Don't mean to sound like a douche but you need to just embrace your stutter, it is who you are, let people take the piss, as long as its not malicious, a bit of joking/ribbing as long as its not overly mean is standard these days.
