Check out the web site for The Stuttering Foundation at www.stutteringhelp.org as their book "Self Therapy for the Stutterer" help my cousins and uncles who stutterer (stammer is the same thing). They said that it take practice and determination, but the work is well worth it. All of them overcame their stuttering and became fluent speakers except under extreme stress like when my aunt died.

I recently saw an episode on TV about stammering. I think it was 20/20 or something like that.
On that episode, they mentioned that people who stammer don't do so, when someone else is talking at the same time as them. Based on this fact they invented a device that fits into the person's ear, and it repeats what the person is saying, which creates the same kind of environment as two people speaking at the same time. And it worked. The person did not stammer when she had the device in her ear.

Stammering is a common psychological problem that affects those people who face intense emotional pressure or emotional torture in their childhood or later on. This can be rooted out WITH FIRM DETERMINATION, PRECAUTIONS, and PRACTICE AND KILLER INSTINCT.
You might be having a habit of speaking fast… just to finish the dialogue before you start stammering… you always attempt to speak out as early as possible so that the people out there may not come to know that you stammer…
For this, you must remember that others have plenty of time to listen you. and you have plenty of time to think, what to speak, to start your dialogue, to speak out the dialogue and express your thoughts in the way and style you like…hence, do not make haste while speaking to any body… take your own time… break your sentence for proper expression and USE YOUR HANDS FOR GESTURING WHILE YOU SPEAK. Remember that you should not hold back or wind your hands while speaking…
You might have seen that whenever you sing in bathroom you just do not stammer. It is because while singing the words comes out in a rhythm on their own… you does not make any efforts to pronounce them. Similarly, you feel it easy while reading a book loudly in a lonely place…it is because you do not get overcautious and conscious about your speech and about yourself. You must remember that the PROBLEM IS ‘BEING CAUTIOUS’ AND ‘BEING CONSCIOUS’.
As such while speaking in public remember the following:
Do not be cautious or conscious while speaking… BETTER BE A BIT CARELESS… some what have an attitude likes ‘I DON’T CARE’…
BE PATIENT and take your own time to speak the first word… then continue speaking by giving breaks in each sentence…the person on the other side will be having enough time to listen to you…
SPEAK LOUDLY AND SLOWLY…
Stammering will go successively with passage of time. The speech phobia that you have, will take some time and will definitely go… have your self-confidence intact and develop a KILLER INSTINCT to root out this common problem by yourself.

Yes, it can be cured. First believe in yourself and make sure to get rid of stammering.
1. Try to talk as slowly as possible. Read at least for an hour everyday.
2. Keep a small pebble under your tongue and try to talk slowly. Read as much as you Can. In the beginning it will be difficult. But you will improve. Then remove the pebble and try talking. You will find improvement. Keep trying.Good luck.

I'm not an expert, but I had a relative who stuttered and stammered as a child. She was in speech therapy and part of their therapy was to have her sing. Apparently, you don't tend to stutter while singing. It helped her self-esteem and she doesn't stutter today as an adult.
