I feel for you because at least I’m in a English speaking country. I also had Troubles with finding speech therapy near me because they only treated kids as well so I just stopped looking( I know there are online speech pathologists too). It’s crazy how SOME Latinos think there’s something wrong with you or that your stupid once you start to stutter. If only they spent a day with a stutter they would understand that’s it’s not something that we can necessarily control. The other day I was stuttering bad when I was ordering ice cream and my mom tried to sound out the words with me while I was blocking. I know she was trying to help I guess but it’s not like I don’t know how to sound out a word it’s that I’m blocking.
