go to www.apa.org (if you are americam) or www.bps.org (if you are english) and click on 'find a psychologist'.\n\nThey will find some in your area, and you will know these psychologists are properly qualified. Even if there is not specifically a speech therapist mentioned, ring one of the psychologits listed in your area up and ask for a recommendation...\n\nTreatment for stammering/speech disorders are quite effective, so all the best!

stammer is a disability to speak continuously which can be overcome by some psychological therapies.  Where as stutter is simple slips while talking due to anxieties, hesitations etc which is a temporary phenomenon

I would say try some tongue exercises, but that might tire you and make speech even more difficult. Still, it might help. If not, look at it this way. People who speak slower are viewed as being more intelligent. Just look at them like you are giving their conversation a great deal of intellectual thought, and they will probably think you are brilliant. \n\nSeriously, talk to your doctor about this and ask if there is something you could do. Perhaps there is therapy for this problem.\n\nGood luck.

You should consult a speech-language pathologist in your area. He/she can perform an evaluation to determine the type and severity of your stuttering. If you agree to treatment, there are many types of treatment. No one treatment is right for everyone.

Great timing on this question.   I just returned from the 2006 American Speech-language Hearing Association (ASHA) Convention and took a course called "Internet Gold for Speech- Language Pathologists".  I'll give you the link for her handout which had dozens of unusual sites specifically chosen by her for use in speech therapy.  These are sites chosen by one of the foremost technology experts in our field!  Some of it won't pertain to you, but page down to find some great resources.  Good luck.  Hope this is useful: http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/ASHA2006handout.html\nI was amazed with this.

Might I suggest a speech class? \n\nIf your writing is any indication of your public speaking skills, then you definitely need some help.\n\nGo to your local community college and enroll in a Speech 101 class. You might even learn some "openers" while you are improving your speaking skills!

Take a speech class.  There are classes that help lessen accents.  Check with your local college communication / speech therapy department.

Is it due to an accent because your primary language is different than the one you are trying to speak?  If so, practice!  Get a movie in the language you are trying to speak and listen to the dialect and copy it.  If you are speaking your "native tongue" and people can't understand you, I would seek professional help in finding out what sounds are giving you a problem.  A speech therapist is trained to help you learn to make sounds correctly.

You need to take a deep breath and get your thoughts in order. Do not speak straight away, visualise your speech then start slowly. Do not rush. Also, practice in front of your friends and family or even in front of the mirror.It really helps!

Maybe you should go to a speech therapist or speech pathologist.  Could be a stuttering issue.  I had a cousin who stuttered.  she would open her mouth but nothing would come right out.  go see someone who specializes in speech.

I dont know the cause of stammering in your regard! Many things could cause it. However, i will pray for you to stop doing it. That you would speak clear!
