Salute from Brazil I'm 19 and I stutter since my childhood days. It's not easy as y'all know. Bullying in school, lefting out some opportunites and everything. But guess what? I entered college this year and I'm studying speech therapy. During apresentations I stutter, and all I can think is my classmates thinking 'How a stutter can be a speech therapist?' Its not easy, it's never been, but it seems way tougher now. I made a promess to myself that I'm going to graduate, and help a lot of kids to not go trough what I been going, that keeps me motivaded. Also, I believe there's a way of getting better and I'll find it, not cure, but a improvement. I'm new to this reddit thing, and i'm happy to see that i'm not alone against it, happy to see that y'all understand me 100%. Love from Brazil.
