Alright, let's just get a few pointers out there for you. :) - 1: There's no need to hide your stutter. Stutter is a thing that happens for some people. It's not going to upend your world. It's just a thing that you and others like you have to deal with. There are other things to deal with as well, but this is one of them. - 2: You mention speech therapy and control. Could you elaborate on how this figures in your story? If you're still having a hard time, your should revisit the therapy option. It might be that what you think is control is in reality not the right route for you. - 3: "God" didn't make you stutter. In fact, "god" doesn't enter into this at all. You needn't think about "god". It's completely irrelevant to your case. Focus on dealing with your stutter instead. Don't get confused by religion. You don't need it. - 4: Don't think in terms of finding a cure for stutter. Your goal should be to manage it better. This is improvement. We like improvement. It makes it easier for us to deal with our stutter. - So, to sum up: Don't be afraid, don't run, don't hide, don't give up. Meet your stutter and manage it. :)
