Stuttering affects people in different ways. There are those people who you would never believe would have a stutter and this is because they are so good at hiding it. Many people they mix with, may not even be aware that they have a stuttering problem. They have become so good at avoiding certain words or by finding alternative words, that they can make out that they are fluent. This takes a lot of effort though and it comes as more of a shock to people when the person does actually stutter.
Other people who have a stutter are unable to do this and can have what is seen as a more severe stutter.
A stutter would normally occur more when a person is:
under pressure
very tired
meeting new people
speaking in an uncomfortable situation
asking questions, for example asking for directions
introducing people
There are many types of stuttering help or stuttering treatments available these days. Most people would first try a speech therapist or speech pathologist. Alternatively they can attend a speech course which can be in a group or on a one to one basis.
I personally prefer and advise one to one stuttering courses as I believe every person who has a stutter is an individual and has their own individual type of stutter.
There are also stuttering self help DVD’s or stuttering self help ebooks now available for people who do not feel they have the confidence to attend a speech course.
People will need to work hard to achieve fluency via a consistent and steady flow of practice.
Yes the techniques on a product such as the seventy minute stuttering therapy DVD do work but they will require practice to enable them to become a natural part of one’s speech.
Work hard and you will receive the desired rewards - and that is total fluency.
