Hi, I’m 15 and am also waiting for the day my stutter disappears too. When it comes the names all I can say is that middle schoolers are probably the meanest type of people in general so by 14 mean girls are just learning how to slowly become decent people so just focus on enjoying yourself and give it a bit of time. When it comes to talking to friends eventually your friends will find subtle ways to make pull more weight in conversation while also not caring about your speech and you’ll start to get more confident in your speaking abilities. As far as speech therapy goes in my experience it’s been pretty hit or miss with how useful it is but one thing that is guaranteed to improve your speech is improving your conversation skills. The most important thing tho is your mindset, if you view your stutter as a disease or an illness all you’re gonna do is suffer and end up dying from it. In my opinion the best way to flip off your stutter is just pushing through it while belittling it, it’s pretty stupid but it works for me at least. Recently I just came out of one of the longest and worst post stutter depression periods of my life. The thing that helped give that last push was being really honest with myself and digging deep to find out why I hate my stutter, and why I let it terrify and affect me the way it does. And it turns out I let those feelings festered till they warped from hating my circumstances to hating myself. So, if we can both overcome this bs I well be better for it and that you’ll be pulling all the 10th grade girls. I’ve never heard of a terrible worthless person who had a stutter so I know you’ll do fine. Also if you ever wanna dm me for advice or anything don’t hesitate Here’s two YouTube channels I’ve been watching to learn how to improve my conversational skills.
