Thank you bro, I appreciate your advice. I’m trying to stop worrying about others’ judgments, and it gives me a great sense of freedom. Even if I stutter, I feel less shame thanks to this mindset. I don’t know if you’ve tried it, but I also do 10 minutes of EMDR therapy before sleeping. I revisit moments when I stuttered so that my brain can process the negative emotions tied to them, so in the future, they won’t bother me as much. For many people EMDR works and I see it as a way to boost my acceptance of stuttering more quickly and to clear out negative thoughts, but it takes time..
