Answer 1

Go to the web site for the Stuttering Foundation at www.stutteringhelp.org and check their referral section. Their book "Self Therapy for the Stutterer" is good for people who can't get to a specialist.

Answer 2

stammering runs in my family. my dad was the worst for stammering, he got no help what so ever. He corrected his self over the years by talking faster and a bit quicker. I know it sounds crazy but it worked. My niece on the other hand is 25 and she started stammering when she was 8. She went to a speech therapist on more than one occasion for years,unfortunately it did not help her much. that's the only advise i can give you.

Answer 3

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.

Stammering / Stuttering - Treatment Overview

Stuttering that develops between ages 2 and 7 years is not uncommon and usually resolves on its own. Regardless of whether stuttering is expected to be a temporary condition, treatment can be helpful.

Treatment usually includes parent counseling and speech therapy. Specific treatment varies depending on when and whether a child's stuttering is specifically diagnosed as:

* Normal disfluency, which likely will resolve on its own.
* Developmental stuttering, which most often first appears around age 5 and generally requires treatment to improve.
* Acquired stuttering, which develops as the result of brain injury (usually from an accidental injury or a disease that affects the brain, such as Alzheimer's) or less often, from severe emotional trauma.

Counseling

Parents of children with suspected normal disfluency may benefit from counseling. This therapy strives to educate parents about speech development and how to respond to their child's stuttering in positive ways. Appropriate responses to your child's stuttering can help the child avoid social and emotional problems that can develop. Being supportive of your child also helps prevent stuttering from becoming a more permanent condition.
Speech therapy

Speech therapy for stuttering has a number of different approaches depending on factors such as the person's age, whether stuttering is likely to resolve on its own, and the severity of the problem. Usually, a speech-language pathologist also combines and expands on elements of parent counseling techniques.

The two basic speech therapy methods used for treating stuttering are called indirect treatment and direct treatment.

* Indirect treatment focuses on creating a comfortable and relaxing environment in which the child's speech can improve naturally. A speech-language pathologist evaluates and monitors progress while observing the child and parents.
* Direct treatment is one-on-one personal interaction between a speech-language pathologist and a child who stutters. The speech-language pathologist teaches the child how to form words, speak slowly, and relax even while stuttering. The child can also practice these exercises outside of instruction time. The child also learns ways to eliminate the physical symptoms of stuttering, such as eye-blinking, and how to deal with the emotional difficulties that may result from speech problems

Other treatments for stuttering are also sometimes used.

* Counseling for the child is often recommended when stuttering is complicated by additional problems, such as anxiety. It is also sometimes used when speech therapy has failed.4 Counseling and speech therapy are often used together for teenagers and adults who have developmental stuttering. The longer stuttering is left untreated, the more difficult it is to manage because additional problems frequently develop, such as low self-esteem. Speech therapy alone is unlikely to resolve these problems. Treatment of teens and adults takes longer and is generally less successful than for children.
* Medications are sometimes used as part of treatment for other conditions, such as depression or anxiety, that can make stuttering worse. Talk to your health professional if you have questions about when medications may be appropriate.
* Specialized therapies are needed for acquired stuttering, which develops as the result of brain injury (usually from an accidental injury or a disease that affects the brain, such as Alzheimer's) or less often, from severe emotional trauma. After a thorough evaluation, a treatment program is specifically designed that often includes some combination of speech therapy, physical rehabilitation, and medication.
