Ever since I can remember I always have studdered, but I recentley read "Man's Search For Meaning" by Viktor Frankel and it taught me to look at the bright side of life. There's a passage from the book that talks how he(a psychologist) treated a man w/ studdering problems. The concept he used is to think about a time when you were happy. So I thought and thought, and I came upon a time in my life that makes me happy every time I think about it. It was my 5th, 6th,or 7th birthday and the party was in my backyard. I was blind-folded and when the blindfold was removed I saw my Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cake. I don't know why, but every time I think about this it makes me happy, almost to the point of tears. Ever since then I have stopped studdering. I haven't studdered in 3 months. I just had to get this off my chest, it really isn't a question. So I'll add a question. Have you ever experienced anything like I have?

It's called visualization and is used by sports psychologists to help improve performance. For example, a running back hears he is getting the ball on the next play. He mentally pictures the hole opening up and him gliding through defenders into the end zone. Or visualizing the basketball going through the net before it happens. It's a very effective technique.
