Yeah I also don't have good experiences with speech therapy. Been to several and they either don't help or they make it worse. I know I'm not supposed to expect them to magically cure me but I honestl...

Can you give success rates of using an SLP? If not no worries, there is no cure for stuttering afterall and so the success rate in technical terms would be low. Many people find it doesn't work and fi...
