There is no one-size-fits-all approach to helping stutters. My stutter growing up was FAR worse than it is now. Everyone has different challenges with it and varying degrees of difficulty and how it affects them. It's a bit ironic that you are dissing the organizations pushing to label stuttering as a disease, yet you (I assume you have no expertise) were able to do something akin to a cure in 1 year by reading online articles. I stutter alone. I stutter talking to my dog. I stutter in my head. I stutter with others. It can be very rare or very frequent, but it does happen.
