The tricky thing about stuttering is the more you try to "solve" it, the bigger it becomes and the more it takes over your life. Stuttering is not a _problem_ or something to be solved. It is simply a difference in the way some of us speak. Some people may be ignorant and laugh or make faces, but the more comfortable you are with it the more comfortable everyone else will be too. My advice is to keep talking. If you feel you are about to stutter, let yourself stutter the way your body wants to and know its ok. The more you try to fight or hide from it, the biggest of an issue stuttering becomes in your life.
