So I've stuttered since I was 7 too. I'm 33 now, and have stuttered consistently since then. It comes and goes in severity for me, but it'd definitely more severe when I'm stressed or thinking/overthinking too much. I also stutter more when I don't talk as much. I used to work as a server, which is odd considering that I can't even say my name right now. But the more I talk, the easier it was to manage my stutter. When I quit my job to stay at home with my kids for awhile, my stutter got infinitely worse. And then with the recent quarantine, it got even more severe. So I've been talking to myself. Reading aloud, singing, having full on conversations with myself. Pushing myself out of my comfort zone with little things, like responding to cashiers at the store when they ask how I am with more than just a muttered "fine". Desensitizing yourself, I guess it would be called. But I feel you. There's a lot I've missed out on because of my fear and anxiety due to stuttering.
