The reason for my comment is because i'm not coming from a place of helplessness. I'm coming from being emboldened by my investigation of the current literature on stuttering. We know so damn much about what's going on in the brain of someone who stutters, we can address these mechanisms. Generally, I'd like for us to understand that we deserve to be treated just like any other neurological disorder would be treated. It starts with us. If we demand treatments that address the underlying mechanisms of stuttering, then researchers will take us seriously. But no. We buy into this hopes and dreams fallacy, that if we just be "confident" enough, if we "accept" our stutter, that it will magically go away. Do we tell the ADHD person to just accept their ADHD? Lets tell the person with depression to just accept that theyre going to be depressed. No, they demand and deserve adequate treatments. And so should we.
