I had speech therapy in high school, and some during school before that. But not since. What she taught me in high school was pretty basic, but it's helped a lot -- your breath is like a full balloon -- and then just let the air out slowly. There's obviously a lot to everybody's stutter, but one of the big things for me is just running out of air. It's like my body (lungs) aren't talking to my brain ... at all. The other thing to do that's a much longer and harder journey is to turn your feedback loop from negative to positive. For example, after you get through a conversation (stuttering, struggling, the whole bit), then ask yourself -- did I die? Did the other person just walk away? Did I get what I wanted? It may seem a bit much, but just remember all the fears you have before the speaking "engagement." Does anything negative really happen? Probably not. Once you get that ball rolling, then you'll find yourself stuttering in front of people and not minding it as much. Good luck though. Stick around here.
