Stuttering on the Telephone I started stuttering at the age of four. The stutter affected my life in a massive way, I had a much lower self esteem than the average person, I did not socialise as much as the average person and I had a genuine fear of talking. For whatever reason I found talking on the telephone the hardest form of speech. In a way this is some what strange as I do not have to look at the person who I am speaking to, people who stutter often find it hard to look at people in the eyes when they are talking to them. Before making any phone call there is normally plenty of time to be able to plan what I want to say. In reality this additional thinking time is what was causing the extra difficulties, it gave the negative voices in my head a chance to convince me that I would not be able to speak fluently. |
