Stuttering And Stammering Solutions

I am looking for a solution to my stuttering problem. I have had a stutter for as long as I can remember and have basically had enough. I have no doubt that my life would improve one hundred percent if I were to be able to achieve fluency and am therefore seeking help. This was an exert of an e-mail that I received a few days ago. In this article I will write about the way I replied to this person's e-mail therefore explaining about the most popular and beneficial forms of stuttering therapy that are currently available.

I understand the problems that you are facing on a daily basis, I am a person that had a stutter for eighteen years. I became very disappointed with the types of therapy for stuttering that were on offer and decided to attempt to formulate my own cure for stuttering. This was in 1995 and after around one year of working extremely hard I was successful in my quest to achieve fluency.

I worked on two main areas:

1. How to gain confidence

My confidence had been shot to pieces due to the stutter and I realised that to achieve fluency I would require a whole new confident me! I also had periods of fluency during the eighteen years that I had this form of speech impediment, these always coincided with the times when I was feeling good about myself, for example life was going well, I was walking around with a smile on my face and I was basically feeling confident.

I studied the subject of how to gain self-confidence and how to increase self-esteem in a big way, I left no stone unturned in my quest to become a stronger, more care-free person.

2. The stuttering therapy techniques

I was fully aware that I needed to basically re-learn how to speak. I had formed some very bad habits which were resulting in my less than fluent speech. I was not entirely sure what these bad habits were and this is what I wanted to work out.

Finding a solution for my stutter was far from easy. It took a great deal of hard work and a lot of time. It was however well worth all of this effort as to be able to speak fluently is certainly a dream which has come true.
