I can only speak to my experience, I would have had them blocks and my name would have been a nightmare. I would have been concealing my stuttering and not feeling fully authentic, I was able to reduce the struggle by accepting my stuttering as part of my identity and tried to stop the idea of wanting to fix it. As I said this has just been my experience and I totally get it that we have different experiences when it comes to our stuttering.
