Christoferjude nailed it. Print that off and keep it in your wallet. One thing I'd add - set yourself a daily quota of 'successes'. Do things that you usually wouldn't: ask that question, don't subs...

I'm 18 too. Speech therapy helped me personally. It didn't fix it but it have me tools to manage it better. How to deal with your stutter depends on what kind of stutter you are. For me, I try to make...
Toastmasters is great. I dont know if they have that organization in turkey. Practicing public speaking and learning to accept yourself and keep from thinking negative worrying thoughts help me the mo...
