Anyone who has to live life with a stammer will know how much of a hindrance it can make what smooth people see as easy tasks. Making a telephone call, ordering a drink, going out with buddies and attending an work work interview can be very hard for folk who stammer or stutter.

I am one of these people who had to endure the affects of stammering. I am now happy to report that I have been fluent for the last 10 years and life hasn’t ever been so good. I was never prepared to accept my stammer notwithstanding what lots of other so called stammering experts said. These folk wanted me to stop fighting and to realize that I’d live with the stammer for the rest of my life. In their eyes if I accepted this fact it might be a lot simpler for me to cope. These pros are fluent people and it is simple for them to say.

Throughout my life I have attempted to improve particularly in the areas that I wasn’t content about. For me stammering was the final problem in my life and I was sure that I would continue my search for a stammering cure for the rest of my life. There was no way I was going to ever accept it. Whenever anyone says to me that a particular thing can’t be achieved, I mostly think of this as a particularly negative approach. I’ve now decided to try and avoid those negative type people as they’re the ones who are puny and I do would like them to have any influence on my life, as they can easily if i am careless bring me down to their level.

I found stammering to be a particularly frustrating problem. At times I could essentially talk quite well, as an example after I had drunk a lot of alcohol. I was able to talk well to one individual but not to another. For a number of years I couldn’t work out why this was. To find some answers I attended speech therapy at various points in my life. Sadly these people didn’t have the required info to help me. My search for a stammering cure would continue in a different place.

My recommendation for anyone who has a stammer is to never give up or accept your stammer. This is in a way accepting second best which is exactly what I did when I had a stammer. I had to accept second best in my work, social and even love life as having a stammer made me believe that I could do no better.
