Thanks so much for sharing your experience with me. It’s horrible you went through this and I can relate to some of that. Please don’t forget your worth. From this message alone I can see a kind and smart individual. I recommend this book: How to Stop Stuttering and Love Speaking by Lee Lovett. It is a method backed by neuroscience and the concept of neuroplasticity that gives hope to even severe stutterers. I haven’t started using the method fully yet, but there are hundreds of success stories that the author describes in the book so I think it’s totally worth reading.
