why do you do to stop stuttering?

Answer 1

Several of my uncles and cousins used to stutter. The all bought the book "Self Therapy for the Stutterer" published by The Stuttering Foundation and worked through the steps with determination and lots of practice. One uncle also went to a speech therapist who specialized in treating stuttering. The Foundation has a referral list on their web site at www.stutteringhelp.org. Stuttering can't be cured but you can control it and become more fluent.

Answer 2

James Earl Jones (the voice of Darth Vader) used to stutter. He realized he didn't stutter when he sang, so he just sings his speech. :)

I have a friend who stutters, and the more stressed out she is, the worse it gets. Just try to stay calm. Maybe speaking slower would help.

1 Think Before You Speak.

Don’t even open your mouth until you are exactly sure about the word or words you are about to say. People who stutter often are smarter than average. This ironically works against the stutterer because when he or she attempts to speak, his or her mind tends to think too far ahead! This causes the conscious mind to not be in line with the current immediate word being expressed. The result is a jam or a block in the flow of speech. It really is not enough to “slow down the rhythm of your speech,” as is so often recommended. This can be slightly helpful, but what really counts is to think before you verbalize each word. It may be temporarily helpful to slow down just in order to retrain yourself how to think ahead of each word spoken rather than after, but eventually, the speed of the speech can return to normal.

2 Say it in Your Mind.

Literally hear yourself successfully saying the word you want to say in your mind before you say it. This is a type of aural visualization. All people who succeed in anything admit that they practice visualizing their success, with optimism, before actually attaining their goal. Imagine the sound of each word, one by one, in your mind before you physically say it.

Answer 4

utilize anxiety strategies to lessen your anxiety of speaking, that should help. If not then go see a speech therapist/ speech langauge pathologist, they specialize in giving therapy to stutterers.
