Can you help me with my stuttering?!


Question:

Can you help me with my stuttering?

I am getting really annoyed with the constant stuttering I have now. I started stuttering a lot this year, but not that much last year. What could be the problem?

In school this year, many of my classmates made fun of me every single day, so I didn't enjoy school that much anymore. I also wanted to move to a different school sometimes. I didn't have as many friends as I did before anymore. When I try to become friends with some people, they told me to "SHUT UP!" or "GO AWAY!"

The school year before that, things were much better because I had much more friends.

Also, there are times in class when I suddenly can't say a word at all, so they make fun of me. They all make fun of me when I stutter, so I just decided to keep my mouth shut as much as I can.

And I don't have the courage to actually speak a teacher about it because I'm afraid of losing my reputation. Also, I don't want to tell my parents about it.

What can I do about all this? By the

My parents DID know about my stuttering when I was little, but they thought it would just go away because I was still growing up.


Answers:

I come from a family of stutterers and know that it is not fun to not be able to talk fluently especially when others tease and bully you about it. They don't understand, and some think you are doing it on purpose to get attention. Our help came from The Stuttering Foundation of America and their book "Self Therapy for the Stutterer" so maybe it will help you, too. Check out their web site at www.stutteringhelp.org.
