Bitter truth to swallow but this is the harsh reality. Some individuals are fortunate to be thriving despite their stutter but most of us are stagnating. My life is not a mess right now, but everythin...

This honestly sounds like depression which although may be focused around your stutter, isn’t caused by your stutter. It’s a different beast all together. Mental health is very important so I hope you...
