For me I found my emotional state tended to have a role in if I had a bad day or not. Like if I got super excited I would stutter non-stop, of course being nervous or under pressure would also bring it on. If I’m angry and/or super focused I don’t stutter at all. As I’ve gotten older it’s become easier for me to control my emotions and I hardly stutter in any significant amount. If I do sense blocks I use the skills I learned from speech therapy to work around them. When I was a teenager into my early 20s, I thought my life was gonna be worthless since my stutter was often so bad I couldn’t speak a coherent sentence. It really wrecked my self esteem at times, especially in school because we all know how mean other kids can be. No matter how your life progresses with your stutter, just know you aren’t alone and this is a great place to vent and to ask for advice.
