Largas: HahahahaNo its not true, I'm an example of a stammerer that has control. |
Naetochukwu: Not my fault joorNow I know d prob..... you are just being sarcastic, you enjoy the attention they attract to u. |
Naetochukwu: I started wearing bra @ 9yrs, the breast was just growing faster than ugwu leaves....I think you have to start appreciating your body like my new friend KHIAA, you're blessed in an uncommon way my sister but limit the exposure if its annoying. |
khiaa: Ok maybe misunderstood your friend, but no one could spite me about my size because I realise that I am truly blessed by GOD in that department, anyone speaking negatively about that (other women) has only proven to be out of jealousy.Your moniker? tell me abt it. |
lemme add my own o. Agbo Jedi husband Alomo Husband: these ones only have packaging and in the end they intoxicate you with love while you remain the same. Red card Husband: very common in the UK, they marry you just to obtain citizenship. Bbm Husband: believe it or not they exist, a former coursemate often complains abt how her hubby pings every second even in bed, sometimes he laughs hysterically. Facebook Husband: he is always online on fb and claims to be single. Nairaland Husband: same as fb hubby but this one shares his family ish on nairaland. |
Lolaabokoku: Na so then D̶̲̥̅̊εγNo!!! Omolola I disagree, if men aren't gods you won't use your moniker, you've savoured the joy of a good man thus the moniker" Lola abokoku" your hubby is lucky Jo. |
khiaa: Ok!!No she is not rude, glitest can be blunt but rude? definitely not. She posted that she started wearing bra at age 12 and a guy quoted her to spite her but she told him not to make her twin babies a topic, I don't think she is rude Miss just as you would respond if a naughty fellow quoted your bra size to spite you. Anyways I love blunt ladies and its nice meeting you. |
khiaa: I am confused. Is there something wrong in telling the truth?No Miss, i appreciate people who are blunt like you that's all. |
There are no instant miracle cures for stuttering. Therapy, electronic devices, and even drugs can't help make it an overnight process. Those who stutter, however, can fight the condition on their own, as well as make significant progress toward fluency by seeing a speech therapist. If you're serious about putting stuttering behind you and beginning your new, more-fluent, life, read these tips and techniques. 1 Mentally and Physically relax... Tell yourself that you really are going to do fine. When you are worried that you are going to stutter, you make it likelier that you will. Relax both your body and your mind. Relax your body: Release the tension in your back, neck and arms. Relax your shoulders; let them sink down to a natural level. Buzz your lips for a couple seconds before you start speaking. Singers do this sometimes to warm up. Shake out any tension that you have in your legs and arms. Twist your torso. Relax your mind: Tell yourself: "I am bigger than this stutter; this stutter is not bigger than me!" Don't tell yourself it's a life or death situation. Stuttering is annoying, but it's not as much of an issue to other people as it probably is to you. Let this thought relax you. Concentrate your attention inside your head. Gently let your attention drift to the furthest tips of your body, breathing evenly. This can be done as a form of meditation . 2 Stand in front of the mirror and imagine the person in the mirror being someone else. Just start talking about anything — how your day went, what you're feeling like, what you're planning on eating later on — and watch your stutter disappear. Of course, talking in front of the mirror isn't the same thing as talking to another person, but this exercise should give you a good boost of confidence. Remember how well you spoke to yourself in the mirror when preparing to talk to somebody else. Try speaking to yourself every day for 30 minutes. It might seem weird at first, but the exercise is hearing your voice without the stutter. It'll give you lots of confidence. 3 Visualize the words you're going to say before you say them. This is hard to master, but it really helps. If you can imagine words, you claim them and it'll be harder for them to slip into a stutter. If you cannot imagine it, they can't be yours. Have a clear mental picture of what you want to say. If you are stumbling over a particular word, try using a word that sounds just like it — a synonym. This word might be easier to use and one that you won't slip over. Try to spell a word out if you stumble over it. You might have to pronounce it very slowly and letter by letter, but at least you'll get the satisfaction of knowing that you pronounced it. Don't be afraid to pause as you visualize or spell out the letters in the word. We're trained to think of silences as frightening; you have to train yourself to think of the silences as opportunities to ace it. 4 When you stutter, try letting out tension in between blocks . Work through stuttering by letting out deep, guttural noises at each block. For example: "It's s-s-s-s- s-. GRRRRRR It's silly." Try stopping by saying "Blah " and continue. 5 Get in the right frame of mind . Before you go to talk dont try to impress anybody, get optimistic instead of pessimistic. Often times, the fear of stuttering can cause stuttering itself. Instead of fearing it and expecting it to happen, try to visualize succeeding. This will help you destroy any nervousness you might encounter. 6 Try breathing exercises to make speech easier. Often, a stutterer will have trouble breathing while they are stuttering. Getting your speech back could be helped drastically by doing breathing exercises. Try these for more fluency while you speak: Take a couple of deep breaths before you start speaking. Pretend you're diving down into water and you need to get a couple of deep breaths before you dive. This may ease your breathing and help regulate it. If you're in a social situation and you feel uncomfortable doing this, try to breathe deeply through your nose. Remember to breathe when you speak and if you stutter. People who stutter often forget to breathe once they begin stuttering. Pause, give yourself some time to breathe, and try to tackle the word or phrase again. Don't try to set any speed records. There are plenty of fast talkers out there, but the goal is not to speak how they speak. Your goal is to be able to express words and be understood. Learn to speak at a moderate pace. There is no rush here, nor are there competitions on who can out talk the other person. 7 Try putting some rhythm into your speech. People who stutter tend to lose their stutter when they sing, for several reasons: the words they are singing are prolonged, and the voice they use is smooth and delivered easier than normal speech. If you can put a little bit of rhythm into your speech (give it an oratory quality, like Martin Luther King, Jr.) you might find that your stutter has lessened or even gone away. 8 If you're making a speech, don't look directly at someone. Look over people's heads, or at a point in the back of the room. This way, you might not get as nervous and start a chain reaction of stuttering. If you're talking directly to someone, see if you can make regular eye contact with them. You don't have to stare at them the whole time, but making eye contact with them will put them at ease, which will help you feel more comfortable. 9 Don't sweat the small stuff. Understand that you'll make mistakes. But it's not the mistakes that define you. It's how you rebound from the mistakes, how you persevere. Understand that you will probably lose some battles, but that your goal is to win the war. |

naijaboiy: seriously it doesn't make sense!!!it doesn't makes sense passing judgement without knowing the bone of contention, she only typed that they had issues which she cannot share. |
andromida:but I thought anxiety is distress or uneasiness of mind caused by fear of danger, the man's prob is his notion about sex which she has to correct, sex during courtship is different to sex in marriage infact sex.u.a.l compatibility matters before and in marriage or what do u think? |

You do know there is a difference in being blunt and being rude don't you? Your friend was very rude, she could have simply ignored this thread if she felt she couldn't answer the question.
