For one thing, you're bombarded with a ton load of information on advertisements on both products and services that make claims that can stop stuttering. This information overload might cause you to come into a "stalemate" and not try anything at all.

So here's two very important things you should pay attention to when it comes to therapies on how to stop a stutter.

1. Stuttering is a disability that cannot be cured overnight. - If you have been dealing with your stuttering (or stammering) condition for many years already, don't expect it to disappear in just a few days after therapy. It usually takes a couple of weeks and up to several months for your stuttering to be effectively controlled. Therefore, you are to keep a keen eye on those who claim to have an instant or "magical" cure for stuttering and research it with extreme caution.

2. Stuttering is in reality not just a speech disorder, but it is also a communication and behavioral disorder. - There are many therapies that aim to correct and improve your speech, but overlook the fact that there other angles that need to be considered and dealt with as well. How you communicate with others is one big thing, and the other is the feelings and emotions that you had to deal with while handling your stuttering (such as fear, guilt, shame, etc.) - the behavioral aspect. These 3 things have to be addressed and managed as a whole. So look for therapies that have and carry this holistic approach.

Remember to do careful research, always make an informed decision, and then take action.
