While I agree that forcing yourself to be fluent and not accepting yourself as you are can be toxic, I believe there are multiple types of stuttering, and some can certainly be cured in my opinion. It...

I'd rather choose the acceptance path, but not forcing myself to act in a certain way. In my opinion, self esteem shouldn't be tied to % of being fluent, as this is a toxic view. Besides, your text c...
