The demons are attempting to take control

I would like to wish my "Manc mate" a get well soon. She is not feeling the best this morning and is struggling to keep her demons at bay.

She attended a course a few weeks ago and has been doing very well speech wise and is basically 98% there. Just a bit more work/practice and she will have achieved her goal of total fluency.

I have been impressed with her new found positive attitude however she does over analyse at times and perhaps thinks too much about certain situations. I have been trying to help her to relax more and with a bit of extra confidence these issues will be resolved. Like the majority of people who have a stutter she is quite hard on herself, does not fully appreciate her worth in life and does not like herself as much as she should.

She is fully aware of the role of the stuttering demons and has been waging war on them since attending the course. They have been out in force this morning, due to her feeling under the weather. Why do they do this? How low can they go, trying to take control at a time when we should be relaxing?

Well as we can see these demons need to be eliminated and despite how rough we feel it is essential that we do not listen to these negative voices in our head.

Keeping fighting and stop being so hard on yourself!
