Do we all feel like we're all waiting for that breakthrough that will make us so confident that we'll be relieved from our stutter? It has come to my realisation that for nearly my whole life I've been waiting for that big moment to come so I can stop stuttering, for example, getting a full time job so I won't need to worry about stuttering. I'm always waiting for that breakthrough. Oh maybe when I'm rich in the future that'll be the day I stop stuttering. I feel underachieved, and that when I achieve something great I will be relieved from my stutter. Does anyone else have this feeling when they come to think of it?
