Can my kind of stuttering be cured/reduced?

    I'd say the type of stuttering i have is blocks. I barely talk because i still feel like I'd stutter, but i barely stutter anymore. I can easily talk and have a decent but short conversation with people, present something in class (It depends how comfortable i am though), talk on the phone, ask questions, etc, etc. I'm a pretty confident guy i'd say except when i talk to girls im interested in :/ ha. Anyways... like i said, people can't tell that i have a speech impediment when i speak. The only problems i have is the letters B, P, K, C and some other ones i think. The letter B is probably the hardest one of all, and P is pretty up their too. Sometimes i can get it out perfectly fine and sometimes i get the brick wall if you know what i mean. I believe anxiety plays a huge role in my stammering, but I'm not entirely sure. I'd say my stammering is mild, but it can get bad if i start playing video games for some reason. Therefore i can't play video games or else my stuttering gets like 10 times worse. Anyone know of anything that can possibly help my kind of stammering?

    Rather than re-write my posts in the thread 'Personal experiences with stuttering', please take a look and see if the content is of any use to you - I explain about the 'B' sound and a possible solution - i.e. how I unblock. Any questions about it - feel free to ask.
