I have been suffering from stammering since my childhood. I am in my late twenties now. The one thing that I have been always looking for was cure for stammering. Because it has been a debilitating handicap. I have come to realise that there is nothing like stammering cure. There is no medicine or some pills I could take and next day voila! my stammering has been cured. No. But please dont be disheartened. If I have learned something in life, it is this – There is always a way out.It is a journey. Like life itself. There is no stopping. There is always the next step. I have improved a lot in my speech and I am still working on my accent. I have learned to control my stammer. Please note, its not stammering cured but stammering controlled. I still stammer from time to time. But its so negligible and the frequency is almost nil. It is only in case of extreme stress or an imminent urgency, that I catch my self stammering. Otherwise in most of my other daily communications and conversations, I seem to be fine. I feel so relieved.
It is more like training a horse. Before the horse was unreigned. It could jump up and down anytime, it liked. But now after I managed to take control of stammering, it comes up from time to time, but I know that it can be tamed. I dont feel helpless. Now that I have reached this stage where I can communicate without the debilitating effect of stammering, my passion is to reach out to other people who are suffering from stammering and help them in some way possible from my side. Because I have been there, I know it feels like to suffer from stammering and give up hope because there is no stammering cure.
