I still stutter, but MUCH less. Due to autism I'm always masking. But when that mask is off in my only safe space (my room), I can have full made-up conversations (I know..) with myself without stuttering on every word. My speech therapist said stuttering is both physical and psychological. Anxiety plays a huge role in it. Anyway, best of luck to you! Hope this answers your question. If you need someone to talk to, I'm always available!
