It's hard man..for me anyways. But you basically have to have extremely thick skin and truely accept yourself for who you are. If you don't then your not going to be able to handle the awkward, embarrassing & disrespectful reactions from some people that will arise..the stutterers that I see that are successful truely don't give af and are seemingly impervious to negative reactions. Accepting yourself fully is the key here. But if your anything like me it takes time to get there.
