I was told by the most prominent stuttering expert in the world that my very mild, random, stutter should just be radically accepted. I’m very much a perfectionist and everything in my life needs to be perfect. Maybe it’s because I’m nearly fluent any imperfection is almost totally unacceptable. Being told that I’m as good as I’ll ever be is very disappointing. Radical acceptance only works for people who don’t crave total perfection in every situation.
