>I'm terrified. If this doesn't help either, I dont know what to do. speech therapy isn't "_one try only_", so put that worry out of your mind immediately. you're not going in there to get _fixed instantly_. you're going in there to get some help getting to know your stuttering, and how, and to which extent, you can manage it - maybe even control it. stuttering isn't a _set_ thing either. you're 21, chances are it'll change in the years going forward. you'll change. if you stick with speech therapy, the therapy'll change. this is the long haul, kiddo, not a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. you should be looking forward to the journey of getting to know yourself, not fearing a new venue in the belief that it's fleeting :)
