The vicious thing with stuttering is that it is often a self-enforcing loop. When you stutter, you feel bad and can get a little bit insecure. This can lead to more stutters because you feel worse. It’s very hard to break the cycle but it’s absolutely vital that you find a way. For me it was getting desensitized to the negative load that comes with stuttering. I’ve struggled with it for a very long time and I’ve had great advice along the way and my stutter finally has lost a lot of power that it held over me. Just know that you are not alone in your struggle. That’s the most important thing to know. Edit: to clarify, what helped me the most was to see it differently. We may not like it but stuttering is officially listed as a handicap. Well then, how does someone that can’t see deal with life? Or someone that has 1 arm or leg. We have the same, we miss a well-functioning speech. Not all blind people are completely blind, some have very limited sight. Accept that it’s a part of you, but it doesn’t define who you are. It may feel like it does, but that feeling is wrong. You are defined by you, not your stutter. Be aware of fear, push yourself but not too hard. You don’t have to apologize when you stutter. Do blind people apologize when they don’t see something? No. So why should we when we can’t say something.
