Do you know who deserves better than you and I do? OP here who is in the same position we are and has the same tools at their disposal as we do, and takes charge by trying the best they can. You can write an essay? Go on OPs profile and find a bunch of essays, ebooks, notes on existing research. Unless you have some inside info about OP working in big pharma and being in a position to enact what you are proposing, who are you exactly addressing? OP owes you nothing and certainly isn't an outlet to vent your inner frustrations. Us stutterers really are something. Go check out any other communities, be it depression, anxiety, autism, ADHD, whatever. You cannot possibly find a more entitled and self-righteous group. Stuck in our misery thinking the world owes us something, uncaring of the effect our negativity has on fellow stutterers who do not lose hope. If someone shares what works for them or suggests something, any other community is like "cool that it works for you" or "I'll try it out," whereas we can get downright vicious. I'm not saying you're vicious in this case. Can't you instead empathize with their plight? Wrong as they might be, where does their intention and determination come from? Doesn't it come from exactly the same place of pain and helplessness yours does writing this comment and mine does writing this comment?
