Well then what you dont understand is that everyone's stuttering is different so not everyone improves no matter how much effort or therapy they put. Am in therapy rn and i will continue, am putting in the effort too. Saying its hell doesn't change the fact that its hell. Its not pitting myself, its stating facts. And being poetic?.. yeah well am poetic coz i love literature. Ik what am saying is negative and as you say it doesn't help but no matter how positive you are, blocking for minutes will still be a negative experience. Also, being overly positive is merely closing your eyes to the situation thats clearly negative. Be positive but dont lie to yourself.
