I appreciate your advice. But I cannot accept it. I do not see my stutter as a major barrier in my life. I’ve stuttered for over 20 years of my life. In fact, I’ve worked on this speech impediment for...

Good news! Your stutter is 100% psychological. It is all in your head. It is not a neurological condition.  You don't stutter when you are at home because you have zero fear...
