Dear Diary,
Today, my wife and I went to the new therapist that she had found, Lionel Logue. I am tired of changing therapists and taking session for fixing my stammer. It’s not worth it. None of the therapies are helping. I haven’t improved even a bit since the first day I started these sessions. Well, I wasn’t expecting those stupid, useless methods to fix my stutter. How on earth talking with marbles in my mouth can help me talk properly?
In our first session, Mr. Logue told me what we were going to do in our lessons and then we started the exercises. First, he told me that I had to tell tongue twisters and strengthen my diaphragm. When he said that his methods were a shilling’s worth, I blew up and shouted. I was nervous and only cared if his methods were going to help me, not the money.
I was planning on having him assist me on minor events and train with him once a week, but actually he said that he wanted to see me every day. I’m not sure how these methods are going to be effective since the only things I did today were jumping, rolling, shouting and as he says “loosening” myself.
