I "never" stutter or stammer when I sing songs out loud. ive been stuttering since age 3 and now im 37 years old.

[Aaronjiski]

I stutter and when people don't know that you stutter they tend to think it's funny but when they realise you really do stutter you can tell that they are alittle ashamed of thinking it was funny... but I guess you can't blame them for not knowing but it shouldn't make you afraid of doing certain things or first and foremost talking to people cause if you don't talk they'll never know right?

[Trikkibel]

@Aaronjiski I totally agree with you. I have a stammer too and i hate ordering things and being at school when answering questions because everyone laughs whn i stammer. It really has knocked my confidence and i want to change but i know ican't and it's quite sa really.

[Aaronjiski]

@Trikkibel If people laugh at you stammering then they are just ignorant,they really are to not know that someone might have something to say and the best way they can react is to cut someone off or make fun of it.When I got older my stammering got better and people didn't care that much,and girls think it's cute when a guy stammers.I wouldn't beat myself up about it,I know it sucks and there have been many times I wished I didn't have it,but then again they only care if you care.Just go with it

Gareth is talking a little bit bullshit about the question, why stammerers don't stammer when singing.

1. Speech is produced in the left part of the brain, singing in the right part and that's the most important thing - two different neurological things !

2. Stammerers don't doubt that they can sing without problems, so there isn't a fear of singing similar to the fear of speaking, so confidence is a point indeed.

@BSX87 if you are such an expert why dont you find a cure...you know jack shit

[BSX87]

@mrhairsaviour: that's not the point. The point is, that Gareth says things about stammering, which aren't true. The answer, why stammerers don't stammer when singing is clear: to different neurological pathways, that's a neurological fact.

[mrhairsaviour]

@BSX87 thats not true cos some people stutter when they sing too...its too complex an issue to generalise...

[BSX87]

@mrhairsaviour: thank's for your comment. It is true, that some people stammer even when they are singing, but that is very seldom.

In fact, I've never met a stammerer, who couldn't sing fluently and I know a lot of stammerers. Also, stammering tends to completely go away, when the singing goes on, although the first sound(s) may be hard.

@BSX87 i have spasmodic dysphonia ..have you heard of this....i have to have botox into my vocal chords..

[BSX87]

@mrhairsaviour: I've never heard of it, but just googled it. It seems to be a disability similar to stammering, but stammering is a different topic, in my eyes.

[mrhairsaviour]

@BSX87 what my point is is that many stutterers actually have undiagnosed spasmodic dysphonia for which an injection will cure it..

[BSX87]

@mrhairsaviour: I'm not sure with this. As I said, I don't know much about spasmodic dysphonia, but I am very sceptical about a connection with stammering. Granted, there are some similarities, but spasmodic dysphonia isn't mentioned in relation to stammering very often, is it ?

[mrhairsaviour]

@BSX87 thats because alot of stammering spasmodic dysphonia sufferers are undiagnosed..there will be alot out there that think they simply stammer

That woman is good at making conversation and keeping interested, but she needs to make it 2-way, not just talking over Gareth!

She was irritating me!
