29yo here who has stuttered my whole life, and yes, it does get better. Luckily for me, my mom is actually a speech pathologist, so she's always helped out and been very understanding. I'm really sorry to hear about your situation, though. The thing that has helped me the most is changing my paradigm from wanting to not be a stutterer to being a stutterer who doesn't stutter (if that makes sense). This one change has taken a lot of pressure off of me in most situations. Best of luck, though!
