Fellow adult stutterer here! As much as we hate being told to breathe, when a therapist actually tells us HOW to breathe or gives us excercises instead of simply saying "Breathe!" which is what my Grandma STILL says.. it does help. This is why Speech Therapy is so important. You aren't going to cure stutters.. it's a problem in the brain - be it neurons misfiring, muscles miscommunication with neurons, but it can be lived with wonderfully! You can have a fullfilling life, a good life! Glad to hear you had a positive experience, please continue the therapy :D!
