Has anyone else just straight up accepted the fact that they’ll stutter forever?

Has anyone else just straight up accepted the fact that they’ll stutter forever? For context, 23M who had a moderate TBI at 6 and has been stuttering ever since. Talking in general still sucks, but I atleast warn people ahead of time so I’m not making a fool out of myself. I used to just power through a stutter until my lungs were empty and my neck muscles hurt, but now I can feel it coming and I’ll just stop mid sentence 😂 it’s become a part of me at this point for better or for worse.
