Keep in mind
that...the less you avoid words and situations, the less you will stutter in the long run.
-J.D. Williams
A great reminder for everyone from Malcolm Fraser's book, Self Therapy For The Stutterer.
Anant: If you want long term pleasure, endure short term pain. Stuttering is about fear, lack of assertiveness and poor self image. Everytime people who stutter courageously face a speech block, they conquer fear. I've observed that when you consistently defeat fear (stuttering), stuttering is permanently dissolved. But, mere will power won't help. People who stutter must have powerful tools and techniques to dissolve blocking mentality first. Hence, get in touch with neuro-linguistic programming. Read John Harrison, Bob Bodenhamer and L.Michael Hall. BE DETERMINED TO DISSOLVE STUTTERING. IT CAN BE DONE.
Tim: The day I stopped avoiding or substituting words, my speech improved.

Amy: As a parent of an 11-year-old stutterer, please continue to share resources like this. It helps to desensitize the disability.

Professor Wendell Johnson gives his unique perspective on stuttering.
"The one thing I've learned is that stuttering in public is never as bad as I fear it will be” John Stossel, an American television personality and author, who's childhood and the early part of his career were fraught with the difficulties of stuttering says he, “remembers terror in the classroom."
Lyn: Even if it is as bad as I fear it will be, I just keep going straight ahead with my point. No stressing about apologies or trying to start over. No sir, we're good.
