Different from others' mindset, I believe you can cure yourself. No more do I have to think about what I want to say, or take a breathe before it, or do any sorts of improvision in my mind or body to help get a word out. When I want to speak, I speak, I am no longer impaired by it. Most of my friends I made over the last two years said they could not even tell if they wanted to, whether if I had a stutter, they only found out when I told them this year. But, you don't stutter when you speak to yourself. You don't stutter when you talk to yourself looking in a mirror, or taking a video of yourself. You don't stutter when you sing (granted it does use a different part of your brain, but still). You don't stutter when you talk to people you are extremely comfortable with. I believe if you can change your mindset, then you can cure it. Now, some people may get mad at me, I know this is easier said than done, because some people have tried, and the stutter just keeps persisting. But the answer isn't looking for medications or a treatment option, or frankly even visiting a speech therapist, IT'S DOWN TO YOU. Took me over a decade, but I got rid of my stutter. Even if I do reach a block, my friends say they just think I'm pausing in my speech (cuz usually my block is like a second or two, it's drastically decreased since I was a kid), so it does just seem natural since fluent people do block themselves A LOT then you realise. But my friends said after that second or two block, I fluently say the rest of my words that they never realise.
