how can i stop stammering?

Question

help me

Answer 1

A wide variety of stuttering treatments are available. No single treatment is effective for every stutterer. This suggests that stuttering doesn't have a single cause, but rather is the result of several interacting factors. If so, then combining several stuttering treatments may be more effective than relying on a single treatment. Many speech-language pathologists favor such an integrated approach to stuttering, and tailor therapy to each individuals' needs.

Answer 2

oh Don, Im sorry to hear about the stammering. I used to stutter in highschool, and so did my mother when she was in highschool, we were both very nervous teenagers, but as we grew into adults we became more confident, and for some reason it just pretty much stopped.

I am now 29, and have 5 kids the only time I stutter is when Im sleep deprived or very very nervous (talking infront of a room full of people) but it does still happen.

if your stammering is so bad that it interferes with your daily living you should talk to your doctor and see if there are any groups or classes with others you can take for support.

goodluck!

Answer 3

I'm 59 years young and have had this problem as long as I can recall.
I find I do it a lot less now though it still happens from time to time. When I was younger it was almost constant.
I find now I can just about tell when it is going to happen so I change the word I was going to use and substitute for another of the same meaning. Incidently my son also has it and my Grandson so I can only assume it is heredity. A therapist once told me to stamp my foot when it occured it did work but I felt stupid stamping all the time. Time and self determination seem to be the answer.
Funny though how it doesn't happen when talking in unison with others or singing. Best of luck.

Answer 4

Several uncles and cousins used to stutter (same thing as stammering) and they all got the book "Self Therapy for the Stutterer" from The Stuttering Foundation of America. By working through it step by step and lots of practice, all of them have overcome their stuttering. Only one also went to a speech therapist who specialized in treating stuttering at the same time he worked through the book. The Stuttering Foundation also has tips, brochures, and videos online at their web site www.stutteringhelp.org. They have a list of specialists under "referrals" so maybe there is one near you that can help.
