Advice I am new to stuttering. I've read through a lot of posts here and a lot of people have been stuttering since childhood. I recently (a little less than two years ago) acquired a stutter due to multiple concussions within a few months of each other. I already had problems with anxiety, but now I barely speak to people because I am always being made fun of. I'm 18 and my only friend is my cat. I've not been to therapy for it because it's too expensive, but I've tried things on my own. I know it's not going away any time soon, so I guess I was wondering what ya'll do to stay positive.
