Hi everybody!
I haven't introduced myself yet so I do it now, I'm Franco, 18 years old, from Argentina and I'm here to attempt to bring some light to my stammering problem.
I have been a covert stammerer since I can remember, having periods of fluency and periods of hiding myself.
This year I couldn't stand it anymore, and talked it ou to my parents, close friends, and family, being this a great advance.
Now, I'm forward giving the big step of opening it up to anyone, this means strangers, new girls, big audiences, etc. and I would like to have a share of your experiences.
Apart from the experience of opening up, I would like to know from you in case you went to a speech therapist, how much I am going to improve there, and for how long will I be able to stand periods of applying speaking strategies, which right now consume all my energies quite fast.
