The third option is stopping the war and winning the fight. For as long as stuttering is a problem to you, it will continue to be a problem. If you're always fighting it, you will always be fighting it. Stuttering does not hold you back from anything in the world. The only thing that can hold you back is yourself. Stuttering does not physically harm you. It can't hurt you. It is a very small problem to have, and everyone has all sorts of problems. At this point in my life, I see it far away as an advantage, too, not a problem at all. I'm thankful I stutter. You sound like me at one point in life. You need to accept your stuttering. That's what overcoming stuttering means. You'll always stutter. It's up to you what impact that has on your life. It is not a barrier to anything in any way. It's all on you.
