28 year old doctor here with a moderate stutter. Still have my stutter. My advice, as a stutterer, would be to accept it and live with it. There is no cure, that’s something you should accept early on, but most people with dedicated practice and going to speech therapist might do so well that it’s not noticeable anymore to other people. But first, your goal is to accept that you’re a person who stutters and no shame in that and to remember to love yourself. As you said your friends don’t care and that’s what’s important. The sooner you accept it, the sooner the process to fluency starts and with age, believe me it will improve, not disappear but improve. Many people have gone on to be famous actors who were stutters. I became a doctor and I still stutter. Just know it will never hold you back. Some situations will be challenging but it will never hold you back. To ease yourself in accepting it, I recommend to go full on stuttering in front of strangers. Go out and ask people for directions or go order a meal or just call a store to ask some questions. Think of it as ripping a bandaid, it will hurt and embarrass you at first but later, it will help you make you stronger and realize that it’s ok to stutter. Regarding the medication. I tried Xanax when I was in medical school. Didn’t really change much. The first step you should do is to go see a speech therapist and follow up regularly. They will guide you through this. Good luck pal and wish you all the best,
