Stuttering and stammering can affect people in many different ways. Some people who stutter fear certain words from certain letters and try to avoid these words or think of an alternative word to say. When I had a stutter or as described as "stuttering" I found the words beginning with "B" especially hard to say. I also found D, G, K, P and V difficult words. Over time he became an expert at avoiding or substituting words.

The affections in school although I was always afraid that I am asked to read aloud from a book. As you read you have to read what is written and this is where the stammer / stutter would be worse. Fluent people are unable to comprehend the humiliation and embarrassment you feel when you stutter in front of a number of people as in the previous example in school. Stutter made my school life very traumatic.

One of the most difficult tasks when asked to make a presentation in front of people, whether at school, college or work. It's not just the day that is difficult is the previous days, when worry and fear is difficult control. Stuttering and the presentation would be forever in my mind. I had a client who appears on the first day that reason attending my speech course was because I wanted be able to give her daughter at her wedding. I asked him when the wedding was to take place is expected within months. She replied that she was only fifteen years! That's how stuttering is able to gain control over their lives.

Socialize and establish relationships with the opposite sex also has its dangers. Order food and drink can be difficult. On a personal front when it comes to buying for example, a bottle of beer, I almost always stutter. My friends were good to me and although normally for my baby to me. I could not wait for my colleagues to do the same and try to avoid evenings out with them.

I've always wanted to have a bride, however this is meeting her parents and friends, lots of socialization, including calls from your initial call. Stuttering would more frequent in the telephone than in any other situation for myself. This for me would have the courage and it was only eighteen, I went on my first appointment. I took a couple to a public house and say I was nervous was an understatement, especially he has to say about stuttering in front of it. On entering the pub I needed go to the bathroom and asked if it included drinks a Diet Coke for myself. No need to go to the bathroom, I just did not want to drink. Later explained about the stammer that he was extraordinarily thin and about it.

At the age of twenty-two had been dating a girl for a couple of years and she started talking about marriage. The fear of stuttering as usual, I stopped and could not go through the wedding. I felt it was a certainty I stutter when I say the vote and make the speech. A few months later I left. This was the final straw was desperate to overcome stuttering.

Gaining employment and working its way into the race can be difficult for someone who has a stutter. Most people stutter more when under pressure, Therefore Interviews can be stressful. On a personal level it took several months to find my first position in employment. I have always believed that stuttering stopped me, and my potential in my career and personal level could not be reached.

Stephen Hill is somebody who has overcome a stammer/stutter and who now helps other people to achieve fluency. Stephen runs one to one speech courses held in Birmingham, England. For people who are unable to attend there is a seventy minute dvd available. His main website is at http://www.stammering-stuttering.co.uk
