Does anybody struggle to pronounce certain specific words like "legend" ? Ever since I was born, I had this stutter, but the thing is, it gets worse and better with time and I have no idea what causes this change. I joined university, gave a whole ass presentation and had minimum stutter, but recently (3 months have passed since) it's impossible for me to have a conversation without bitterly stuttering over 40% of the words. The more social confidence I have, the more I'm put down by my stuttering. I really stutter on words like "legend" "lethargic" "lemon" see the problem is mostly the Ls. Please let me know if anybody else suffers or had suffered from this and what made it better.
