Hi Bryan, I love the initiative. Maybe I can help. I used to stutter myself (really bad). Went to a speech therapist who told me I could never get rid of my stuttering. It had a huge impact on my life and I stopped speaking for the most part. Eventually I did a alternative therapy and my stuttering completely dissapeared within 6 months. I do not credit the therapy fully but it played a huge part. This is 14 years ago and I speak an think as if ive never stutterd. No fear of stuttering again as i feel I understand the underlying cause. After this I started working in a alternative therapy that was simular to what i know is helpfull. I did it next to my job as a way to give back. Here I met alot of people and this gave me more inside into the cause of this. I believe acceptance is very important, also a singing like way of speaking is super helpfull as a temporary or inbetween solution, but at the end the most important factor ive noticed seems to be your childhood/past. Ive noticed that simular conditions always have a reason to be there and they want to protect you in some way. The only resource I found to have an accurate discription of the cause, is german new medicine. [Motor Cortex Constellation (learninggnm.com)](https://learninggnm.com/constellations/documents/motor_cortex_constellation.html#Motor_Const_Vocal_Tics) For me, I've learned that stuttering was trying to protect me. Growing up in our house, it was not save to speak, so unsave that I couldnt speak at some point. I grew up in a household with a narcisitic dynamic and developed multiple disorders alike. So if I find a way to feel as if it is save to speak, I will have no need for stuttering. It is obvious to me that there is a solution, given the underlying cause, this is not a small ask of someone and not everyone is ready to do so at every moment. So I think it is helpfull to accept it and in the mean time there are ways to support yourself while still stuttering. I strongly believe that it is very disrespectfull to force someone to resolve their stuttering. It takes alot of work and there is a time for everything. Let me know if this is helpfull and what you are looking for. I wish someone told me this when I was younger. Kind regards, N
