In my case it got worse since I became an orphan, probably due to stress of losing both my parents....

It goes in waves for me. Really bad as a young child. Very mild as a teen and in college; I bet most I went to college with had no idea. Bad as a young professional. Okay in late-20s. Bad again in mid...

My confidence got a lot better as I got older and I feel this the most important thing. I think my speech has generally improved but it is really hard for me to judge. I was so self-conscious growin...

I think I wear it better as I get older. It’s a lot easier to own it now. People don’t make fun of you as much as an adult. It’s rare that anyone ever says anything at all about it....

Way better for me. I used to have blocks, repetitions, facial distortion, the works. Until I turned about 20 and my fluency is almost 98%. I know I’m lucky, but for most, it gets better, at least a li...
