Acceptance is just one piece. You need to work on reducing unproductive behaviors. You need to replace bad habits with good ones. But if you really accept your speech, regardless of how much or often you stutter, you don't have a fear of stuttering because you've done enough work to where you're no longer I Impaced by it. Whether you stutter it not, you don't feel any differently about yourself. Of course getting there can be easier in some places than others.
