What Causes Stammering ?

Stammering generally begins in the age group of 3-5 years. This age group can also be extended to 7-8 years. " It Is Not A Disease " I say it again. It is common in as many as 2-5 % of world's population.

Stammering is caused by less intake of breath while speaking a particular sentence. This is mainly because of high speed of speech. A Stammerer will always try to speak a word or a sentence as quickly as possible which would eventually make it worse. Lack of breath in us to speak a word or sentence is what causes stammering. So if you want to cure your stammering , The first step is slow down your speech and increase your breath intake. Other causes include fear, stress, guilt, social anxiety etc.

Some Important Tricks To control Stammering : -

  • Breathe as much as you as you can before you you speak a sentence.
  • If you feel you are going to stammer , stop there and breathe again and then speak it again.
  • Speak not till your last breath but before that.
  • Always speak slowly and calmly.
  • Never hesitate to speak in public.
  • If someone laughs at you while you are stammering , Dont bother keep on speaking. One day they will respect you.
