I agree with a lot of your concepts. CBT and the like can be very effective. Personally, it wasn't until I changed the "stuttering mindset" that I was able to "move on" from stuttering. With that being said, I find your title in particular to be cavalier and flippant. Also, you take our negative feelings (i.e. "I am a loser") and minimize it to "some children found appearance funny at that moment and nothing more." Let me back track. Stutterers can go through decades of trauma. It goes way beyond a couple of kids laughing at your expense.. I, along with many of us, have faced flat-out discrimination by employers, ridicule by love interests and disapproval by parents. We live/lived in a constant state of fear and embarrassment. How can you say not to take all of these terrible moments seriously? It takes a long time to heal. It has taken me decades. Before we can heal, it's ok to grieve our trauma. It's ok to feel wronged. It's more than just people being silly and ignorant to us. I think we as stutterers really need to recognize all the negative emotions and how deep they really impact us. The techniques you mention can have great benefit, but they dont get maximized until you are truly honest with yourself. At that point, you can be ready to heal. That's when acceptance and changing your mindset can be most effective.
