Seriously see a therapist. Even though at times (or all the time) it can be really tough, stuttering is not worth dying over. Also read "Out With It" by Katherine Preston, it really changed my percept...

Yes, I feel like it is helping me get my confidence back. I've been doing it for a while and already feel more confident and stutter less. Even if it's placebo, it's working....
