Everything you said is correct. I used Stoicism to help me with the control aspect it. And the age factor of it too, you’ll realize life is too short to care. I’m not saying I don’t cringe at myself for stuttering, or whatever, but I think to myself, when I’m old in my armchair, what will I look back on? Resentment for not living more, or proud that even tho the cards that were dealt to me, I was able to live a happy and fulfilling life
