26 M. I've noticed that the more I try to hide my stutter from strangers, the worse it gets. However, if I talk to them and I stutter, I disclose it and move on with the conversation. The vast majority of people won't mind at all and will keep talking to me normally. This depends on the severity of your stutter. Mine ranges from mild to severe and consists of blocks with some eye twitching. It might seem weird to those who don't know me, but it is what it is.
