I have a stutter too and I am 16 in high school. I know that every job I want, every goal I chase, every relationship I pursue will be effected, probably in a sour way, by my stutter. But I can't wish for it to go away. Golly, I wish I could ;). I think of the bright side. I am not blind. I am not deaf. I am not bodily disabled. I do not have a cancerous tumor. I have been blessed in life, with just a little bit of mud splashed on me. Beating the wall with anger might feel good, but the frustration could be turned into fuel to put anything and everything you have in yourself to counter the stutter and see what reduces it. There is no consequence for stuttering in front of anyone, whether it is friends, family, coworkers, girlfriends/boyfriends, customers, clients, bosses, or even strangers. All of that is THE TRAINING OF YOURSELF. Your frustration is a double-edged sword. Currently, you might be on the wrong side of it. But I believe in you to reduce it to whatever ability you want. Look at Steve Harvey. This guy was a stutterer who now runs a talk show and speaks in front of thousands of people seamlessly. I believe it is all in the head, assuming it is not a mechanical speech issue. Best of luck mate :)
