No one taught us HOW to speak. The voice is linked to expression. The average stutterer is suffering from stage fright and vocal ignorance. Stage fright is anticipation of rejection, caused by looking for negative evidence in the room which creates anxiety. A habit you can break. The stutter effect itself is vocal ignorance (not knowing how the voice works and incorrect technique.) Stutter is NOT a neurological disorder. Your brain is fine. Your vocal cords are fine. The medical industry is GUESSING at what stutter is. Unfortunately, many clinicians are MORE interested in symptoms and authority than problem solving. If stuttering were a medical condition, most stutterers wouldn't walk away from it during puberty. Stuttering is an emotional effect caused by nervousness and vocal ignorance. Ask yourself. When does your stutter occur? Does it happen when you are nervous or calm? If nervous, it's caused by anticipation of rejection. You can fix that by training yourself to seek out good news when you talk to people and break the negative habit. If you stutter when you are calm. That's vocal ignorance. You can fix that too. Don't bother asking stutterers who have been stuttering for decades what stutter is, because if you have been stuttering for 20 years, you've trained yourself to numb out the emotional overwhelm. The vocal and social failure is so great for the habitual stutterer that they went numb in social settings years ago. So if you ask them if they are anxious or nervous or fearful when talking, they will often reply "I have zero anxiety when I stutter." That's a PTS response. If you just acquired stutter, the medical professional will throw proposed "theories" they read in a journal somewhere, written by some other researcher as if it were fact. Just like the age of the pyramids. no one knows actually how old they are. Don't buy it. Your first step is to learn vowel-based speech training and stop attempting to voice those voiceless consonants, learn how to group batch and read poetry by speaking like great speakers such as Jeremy Irons. Listen to how he speaks correctly and mimic him. P.S. NEVER take voice advice from voice coaches who CANNOT sing and definitely take ZERO advise from speech therapists who stutter. If they cannot solve their own problem, how can they solve yours. - Much Love and success. Guy :-)
