If you could do it yourself, you’d have done it already
I recently read this quote and it really struck home with me as it relates to stuttering. For people who stutter, there is a certain bond we all have which is unexplainable. We all know how the other is feeling at that moment of having a block and not being able to get the words out, even if it’s just our name.
Learning new tools to deal with your stutter is great, but trying to figure it all out by yourself can sometimes be difficult. There are support groups for all types of people, and for good reason. The power of a common group who shares in the same beliefs and goals is quite amazing. We are social creatures and perhaps this is part of the reason that group settings help us achieve more than if we try to do it ourselves.
The next time you don’t feel like going to a support group meeting, or not “bothering” the friend in your support network, just remember this quote.
