Hello! I recently heard that research shows that when people who do not stutter have a dysfluency in their speech, they disregard it and often it goes unnoticed. On the other hand, when people who stutter have an exceptionally fluent period, they disregard the fluency of their speech believing that it is abnormal for them. A fluency diary was suggested to assist people who stutter with documentation of fluent periods so these periods can be acknowledged and rewarded. I was wondering if anyone feels that this is true of their fluency, and if you have ever tried keeping a diary, and if it helped. Thanks!
