As someone who has stuttered since the moment he could talk and can somehow fluently speak for hours by himself I say please do yourself a favor and give the book a try like I am. I already started reading comments in this thread about how stuttering can't be cured and I say fuck that. With that mentality it never will be curable. 27 years I've been hearing that Bs and I know now at least my stuttering is 100 percent anxiety driven and just in the first few pages lee addresses many of these points I was coming up with in my head. Ignore those people. Give the book a try. We deserve hope!
