I’ve stuttered to some degree my whole life. You literally have to keep a positive life experience in the back of your mind at all times. When bad thoughts come into your mind like “missed opportunities” or anything like that think on that positive thought. It won’t be easy. Also stuttering doesn’t define you. It’s something that happens when you speak. Don’t waste your time thinking about missed opportunities. I’ve been in incredibly embarrassing situations where I stuttered. Oh well. Life will go on. Remember you are more than your stutter!
