Thank you for this very interesting paper! I think perfectionism definitely has something to do with my negative attitudes and feelings that I have had towards my stuttering since I was young. I have been noticing, especially at work, that I beat myself up over every little mistake that I make, not just stuttering related. I give myself such a hard time, and one of my co-workers even pointed out today that I apologize ALL the time. I recently read a book about OCD and CBT, but it would be interesting to learn about CBT in regards to stuttering as well. Thank you all so much for writing this! It really got me thinking! :)
