im 18 and i understand you. i feel like life looses quality with stuttering. we are robbed of our own voice. i haven't been to therapy yet. the best thing i can recommend is finding someone who doesn't care about your stutter. It really helps if the people you spend all of your days with just look past it and treat you normally. my people is my family,my best friend and my boyfriend. Dont get me wrong, i still have breakdowns about my life nd my speech, but its a little bit better with someone who understands.
