Any Cure For Stammering?

I'm a stammerer but you woun't know unless we're very close pals or family members. I't doesn't really have a cure, but it can be controlled 100%. I'm 75% over it but i'm still working on my talking speed and patience to be 100% fluent.

                                        SO HELP ME GOD!!!!!!!!!!!

you again? SMH

I love stammers. They always crack me up big tyme. Anytime i feel blue, i always look for a stammerer. They provide for delightful entertainment and excruciating laughter that hurt my ribs. When you see them trying to pronounce a word for example "DISINFECTANT", You see their eyes dilate, their chests swelled and puffed up, their necks all straightened out with the veins coming out and their mouths wide open like a mercedes benz drop top and the chhh. . .chhh. . chhh,  stammering echo begins to rev up:

"DISSSS. . . .SSSSIIIII, FE. . . . . FEC. . . . .TA. . . . TAAAA. . . TANTTTTT!" and when they finish that long boorish word, they will now reconfirm it again at once without stammering to drive home their speech prowress"DISINFECTANT".

If you really want to laugh out loud, you tell them immediately that you didnt hear what they just finished saying and force them to go through that comedic sequence again of repeating that word in a stammering fashion.

Honestly say the truth, how many of you havent felt like breaking into laughter tears when your conversing with a stammerer? its always a thing of joy and fun, especially those who think they can mask their stuttering by speaking in a fast manner but when the stammering hooks them mid way, chei, the next word that comes out will take an average of 3 minutes for them to pronounce it.

I wonder why stammers are discriminated at from saying the news on radio or T.v? If i had only one wish, it will be to watch a one hour news broadcast proffered by a chronic stammer!!! I know that day, i will be due for a rib transplant!!!. . . lol  

Do i feel sorry for them? Hell No! Rather i adore their prescence to entertain me beyond my wildest dream. Its doubly funny when its a chick that stammers. Now that one, i cannot pretend and hold the laughter within. After watching her pancake her face and adorned with sexy clothes and she acts like a stuck up snobbish b***tch, its a major relief to see her do the chi. . . chhhh. . . .chhhhhhhhh . . . routine sketch all night!   

There is no cure for stuttering which I know but If you try to have total control over your actions it will reduce.

Be conscious of what ever you do

Don't be in a hurry to respond to people

Be calm

Don't be nervous

Have confidence

ANGER: The worst thing that can happen to a stammer> Control your temper or simply don't say anything

Speech Therapy: It may or may not work for you.

It usually works for 10 out of 100.

@nazzynon,
Hi there!!! It has been a long time i have posted any topic on this site. But, far and large i have enjoyed your brillant post to this topic.

My dad told me a trick that works. M  A G I C

He asked me if I stammer when I sing. My answer was no.

So he said, just pretend you're singing! And voala, it works. Of course you won't sing really, but stream your speech like you're singing.

PS.

I didn't stammer till I started making fond of my brother who did, when I was seven

Stammering is not a disease but a habit. Which means that
it can be stopped with speech therapy(which i dont think exist in Nigeria).

But without therapy, the following could be useful:

1.Control your breathe. Try to speak one whole line in one breathe.
2.Change your style of speaking.
3.Listen to some great speakers and try to speak like them.
4.Do not think about stuttering while speaking, put your mind on
ither things.
5.Above all remember that you have to face tour fears. Build your
self-esteem.

Beleive in yourself and remember that if it is to be, it is up
to you.

All the best.

@ keyremotes, nobody is born a stammerer, u formed the habit, not that you were born that,
its just like saying u were born sucking finger. they are all bad habit that could be overcomed.

This is interesting. I travel by train to/from work, and the train driver always cracks me up with his announcements.

Reading this thread now, I can see that this is the strategy the geeza is playing out. I thought it was a joke initially, but
eventually figured out he had a speech impediment he was trying to mask. He does really sound like he's singing
a song, which comes accross as quite strange, though a lot more fluent that his normal speech would have been I can
tell.

How do you talk and "sing" without sounding like a comedian, or appearing to be talking too fast?

Yea I used to stutter quite badly when I was much younger, some people used to tease me about it, so I used to attack them. Elder Nigerians used to laugh at it too and when I was 13 I ran into some older Nigerian man in Peckham who kept laughing at it in broken English and gisting about it infront of other olders, until I busted his bottom lip. Everyone was shocked but I was ready to kill that day, shit just got outta hand.

But actually it has been YEARS since I stuttered now, its pretty much gone. I just stay focused on what I'm saying and thats it, because even people who dont stutter still do so when they are nervous but that aint really stammering is it. So I'm good now. But I got into alot of beef with people because of it. Even when I'm angry or in a hurry I dont stutter.

i'm a stammerer and my close friends will swear that i'm not,  they virtually dont know that i stammer, well except when i'm angry.

concisely, u just need to relax, and take time to pick your words one after the other.

gud luck man

the cure for stammering is time, my younger bother was once on the same road

I tried not to laugh but I had to.

I have friends that do stammer. First trick y'all need to learn is to stay relaxed. Don't try to force words out of your mouth.

I remember bursting a guy's lip for taking the piss out of a friend(pretty gyal by the way of mine who stammers.
