F.E.A.R = False Evidence Appearing Real
How many times have you feared the very worst about stuttering and the worst never happened? So many pws stuttered during interivews, they felt sure an offer would not come because of the stuttering and POOF the offer came! A pws can worry in the past tense and in the future tense. This is why stuttering has been compared to PTSD.
BUT we must realize that we typically blow our stuttering out of proportion and that we have a community of people who don't judge our stuttering the way that we assume.

Self-Sabotaging Beliefs: What are Those?
I will not disclose my stutter! I will not use self-deprocating humore about my stutter! I will not use my new "stutter more easily" technique such as a pull-out with people who have seen me stutter for years! I will not tell anyone that I have joined a stuttering support group or that I attend speech therapy! The self-sabotaging beliefs, that originate in projecting on our listeners, keep us from emancipation from stuttering.

Rigid Beliefs- Identify Them and Destroy Them!
We have all experienced painful moments of stuttering during which we formed rigid beliefs. Rigid beliefs are the ones that we think are gospel, no one can talk us out of being under the spell of the belief we have, and we rationalize these toxic thoughts.
What is a belief? L Michael Hall, of Neurosemantics, taught me that a belief = words + affirmation. An example would be "As a speech pathologist I cannot stutter..a potential client will judge me as unqualifed to help." We affirm our words in our brain. Yes, someone did hurt our feelings BUT we simply MUST delete the memory and break through!
