It really works for me. It’s a dirty fix and I’ve begun relying on it in social settings. Mainly it just helps you not care about your stutter. Helps a lot if your friends are also drunk and already k...

Not for me. The only thing that does is not caring. If I could not care all the time, that would be great....
