That’s awesome to hear. Sometimes we underestimate the impact that negative thoughts have on our stutter and even more important, the negative impact on our mental processing. Stuttering is so much more than just the blocks, hesitations, prolongations, groping, repetitions, and physical reactions. It affects us socially, emotionally, and mentally. It can cause depression, lack of confidence, and feelings of inadequacy. The things you worked on are things everyone who stutters should work on, especially if they feel very negative about their circumstances due to stuttering.
