In an all-time Workshop first, we
were thrilled to learn that therapists Srinakorn Prohmtong from Bangkok and Mitchell Trichon from New York have gotten married. They first met at our 2013 Eastern Workshop held in Boston and fell in love, traveling back and forth to each other’s countries to meet ever since.
Please join us in congratulating Srinakorn and Mitch Trichon.
fureverfontsdesign This painting lists names of well known people who have struggled with a stutter. I have had a stutter for as long as I can remember. Stuttering isn’t the same for everyone. For me, I speak relatively normally when talking off the top of my head. It’s when I am asked questions that I often stutter. I know the answer and for some reason my brain betrays me and I stumble on basic information like my name, my family’s names, where I’m from, where I work, etc. I can not tell you how frustrating it is to be trapped inside your own mind. I am screaming the answer, but it won’t come out. Stuttering often leads to anxiety. The anxiety surrounding stuttering can lead to stutterers trying to avoid saying words they can’t say altogether.
As I get older, I accept that this is who I am more and more. I am more forgiving and patient with myself and I know that people who truly care about me don’t see my stuttering as a flaw. It’s just who I am. I’ve learned to find the joy in little victories each day. #stutteringfoundation
