Does anyone stutter on the phone? For me its hard to say words sometimes.?

Question

How can you fix it?

Answer 1

Here is what The Stuttering Foundation of America has on their web site. They have a brochure about talking on the phone that you can find by clicking on "Brochures for all ages" in the left column of www.stutteringhelp.org.

Practice should help you to feel happier about using the telephone.
Confront your fear of the telephone. Talk about what it is that you fear happening and what you can do about it.
Try to be aware of situations where you avoid using the telephone and gradually tackle these calls. Make the most of local calls for practice. Choose to use the telephone rather than write letters.
Try to be the person in your household who answers the telephone.
Openly admit that you stutter. This may be very difficult if you have avoided talking about it all your life. Practice talking about your stuttering. Many people have said that talking about it has reduced their anxiety and fear.
Watch and listen to non-stutterers using the phone. Listen to their lack of fluency and their hesitation.
Give others the benefit of the doubt. If they know you stutter then they are prepared to expect some silences.
Finally practice, practice, practice. Do not let that modern-day piece of plastic dominate your life. It is far better to use the phone and stutter than to avoid using the phone.

Answer 2

I'm pretty sure it has nothing to do with the phone if you stutter

but if it sounds like your stuttering to the person your talking too it means that you either have a low signal or something is interferring with your phone call

Answer 3

it may be a possible focusing problem. i mean, do you walk around with the phone? mess with tv, make dinner, chat on the comp? all of those things affect you're mental concentration on talking. if you do these things, try to stand still. i've had this problem and staying in one spot has helped me.

Answer 4

I don't stutter, but I blank out.

It is best to have a very good idea of what it is you want to say. Being prepared cuts down on lethal pauses or the gibbers (uh, but...uh, bu...uh, bu...).
