M35, have been stuttering as long as I know. I work as Data Scientist in a Fintech. Looking back, I chose a technical field probably because of my stutter. When I started my career, I was struggling financially, so couldn't really afford speech therapy. So, I've mostly done self-therapy by reading self-help stuttering books and videos. Like other commentators, I've good and bad days at work. I've to do meetings/presentations several times a week. I give those passing/failing grade based on how much I stuttered. Usually, I pass around 70% of time. However, the important thing to note is that your audience usually do not care about your stuttering. I grade myself solely to keep track of my progress. I struggle with everyday tasks like ordering food, talking to customer service over phone, etc. but I've learnt to see these as opportunities to practice my speech, rather than hurdles. This helps alleviate my fears of speaking. I've a loving wife, family and good friends, and my stuttering doesn't bother them at the least. My stuttering has allowed me to find good friends that are willing to look past my stutter, and see my other qualities. It's almost as if stuttering makes you come across as more genuine, because you usually cannot 'hide' your stutter from the people that you interact with (lol, not sure if that made sense). Kudos to you for gaining awareness about treating your stuttering at a young age. This means you can start working on it, and learning how to manage it. Just like brushing your teeth you've to work on your speech for the rest of your life. But please have faith that things will start getting better once you start putting in the work.
