I went to speech therapy late as an adult, I went maybe 8 visits? I'm not sure why I wasn't put in speech as a child, maybe the resources weren't there, or maybe my school wasn't on the ball. Anyway, I did the exercises in therapy and it helped some, but when I went home I felt foolish. I know that's a dumb excuse but it just seemed to be so unnatural to me, and I felt ashamed, even around my mom or bf.
