Yes, you can overcome your STAMMERING!!

The smooth & easy flow of utterance in a speech is regarded as the Fluent Speech. This smooth & easy flow of speech depends upon the continuity of speech utterances, effort with which the utterances are affected, rate or the speech with which the speech is articulated & the rhythm of speech. Whenever these dimensions are broken it results in Dvsfluent Speech.

So when speech is frequently disrupted by Repetitions, Blocks & Prolongations, it takes the form of a fluency disorder termed as STUTTERING. Also commonly identified as Stammering.

Although the major forms of stuttering include “Developmental Stuttering”, “Neurogenic Stuttering” & “Psychogenic Stuttering” it is ‘Developmental Stuttering’ that is very commonly seen. Here, the speaker knows what to say, but is unable to say it without repetitions & blocks. Normally seen between 2 yrs & 6 yrs of age. This can also get carried on to teenage & adulthood if proper intervention is not initiated at the onset.

Danger Signs include:

• Dysfluency for more than 10% of the total words spoken.
• Sound/Syllable Repetitions.
• Sound Prolongations.
• Silent visible fixes between speech
• Distressed feeling due to disruptions in speech.
• Avoidance of speaking situations due to negative anticipations.
• Visible signs of struggle during speech production.
