>Saw a speech therapist in grade 3. Speech improved a bit but not by much. Haven't seen one since You definitely should see an speech therapist again. Even if it sucks, it can only help. >My s...

I don't know how much you stutter, i stuttered less in front of people i cared about and i was comfortable being with (it still stuttered pretty much, but i could express myself). I guess another big ...

Honestly, I know it's hard to believe, but you're not isolated because of your stutter, **you isolate yourself because of your stutter**. It's a fact that took me a long time to realize, and still now...
