Are Adults Able to Stop Stuttering?

Posted by Jasmin Mayfair in on Saturday, 25 July 2009 | 0 Comments |

Reaching adulthood and still stuttering is something that 1% of us still suffer from. Like most speech disorders it's a lot harder co correct when your older but is it possible to stop stuttering as an adult?

Are Adults Able to Stop Stuttering?

Adults who develop stuttering or stammering at an early age but weren't able to get the necessary therapy to properly treat their condition are the ones who often face the challenge of learning to accept their stammering without any feelings of insecurity or inferiority. While it greatly relieves an adult's emotions when one accepts his or her stuttering condition, there is no harm in searching for a possible cure.

While it greatly relieves an adult's emotions when one accepts his or her stuttering condition, there is no harm in searching for a possible cure. However, there has been no reported one cure that works for all persons. This is because any two individuals who stutter may have the same outward manifestations, but the factors that trigger the stuttering and the response to it (physical and emotional) can be very different.

You may be able to find a cure that will work for your case and be able to stop your stuttering, but usually, the "cure" consists of techniques which are very helpful but require ongoing practice for you to maintain your "cured state". This is different from actually being completely healed.

Still, it does no harm in trying to get speech therapy again (especially now that there have been great changes in technology and in the techniques used for adults who stutter). Look as well on what other reliable sources would have to offer, as there is always a strong probability that something can be gained from trying anything, and even everything.

But make your choice an informed one. And have the perspective that while you're in search of a cure, you are able to accept your stuttering and are taking the appropriate steps in managing it well.

There are more resources for stuttering tips included on this Squidoo page. One of the programs is less than a year old and has some rather interesting methods that show you how to stop stuttering in 9 minutes.

Stop Stuttering Therapies - 2 Important Things You Need to Consider

There are at present, many different therapies in existence on how to stop stuttering, and for one who is serious and eagerly searching for a cure, or a way to best manage it - the process is mostly confusing and stressful. 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.

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.

I have put more information on how to stop stuttering on a hub lens...My family have been stutterers and there are cures that do help to control and in many cases teach you stop stuttering methods that you may find will work for you. Here is a Squidoo lens about the famous who have used stop stuttering methods that have worked.

Making a Significant Difference With Your Life Stop Your Stuttering

Let me start out first by saying that the quality of your life doesn't have to end if you are not able to stop your stuttering. There are now many new improvements in technology, particularly in the area of speech therapy that may cure your stuttering. If not cure, then be able to manage it, in such a way that you are able to live a normal life.

But even then, can you make a significant difference with your life even though you have a stuttering (or stammering) condition?

There's this story of this man I know, who visited our church one time. He was way past 50 years old, and he looked very intelligent and skilled in his field. Rightly said, because this man happened to be a master storyteller.

From my conversations with him, I learned that he has been through many places around the world and invited by a good number of groups and congregations to speak and share the message of hope, in a way that holds the audience's attention and captures their interests - through the simple medium of stories.

We sure learned a lot that day from him, and were entertained as well. He looked very vibrant and sounded so fluent, that it was hard to know the real fact that this man had a stuttering problem! He admitted it before one of his dramatic stories, and mentioned that he too at the start thought that apart from maintaining a normal life, there was nothing great he could do.

It was in the moment when he accepted the fact that he could not stop his stuttering, and just let go of the situation (by learning how to live with it, without stressing himself too much in finding a cure), that he saw a great opportunity to make a difference in the world of storytelling, and create a lasting impact in the lives of others.

And to think that his profession now involves his mouth quite a lot!

I have been under the tutelage of that man for a certain period of time and represent one life he has touched.

Your life matters as well, whether you are trying to how to stop stuttering or not. Just open your eyes and try to look at the world differently, and you will see there's a lot of opportunity for you to bloom where you are planted.

There aren't any real secrets in how to stop stuttering but there are some great stop stuttering techniques that have worked for stutterers available online.
