41. I stuttered like hell in my teens and 20's. Went through lots of psychedelics, booze, pot. Didn't help. Different fluency techniques/coaching orgs helped some. Small doses of benzos were/are helpful, still, but that may depend on the cause of you stutter? I started a regimen in my mid-20s and it worked wonders for both speech - and associated anxiety. THAT got me to a place in life where maybe I don't mind or don't care about the stutter as much? As such, I stutter even less.
