20M Very important topic! I myself still struggle with this feeling sometimes. But you know what has really been the turning point for me? Joining stuttering communities. I participated at a Stuttering Youth Exchange last summer and it gave one of the best experiences of my whole life. This event was organized by Stamily, a mostly European based international stuttering organization. Also, there is the International Stuttering Organization or ISA. Or there might be a national association in your country. Look it up. I simply cannot describe how it feels to be surronded by other PWS, especially without tears. Experiencing that you're fucking not alone with stuttering, and many other people (80 million in the world right now) have the same condition, it's simply mindblowing. Now, I have many-many friends from stuttering communities and I can't get enough. The type of bond you can forge with them is unbreakable and uncomparable to any other relationship. You just feel each other. I've spoken.
