Try these remedies, meet a speech therapist.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

I understand your concern. Usually stammering is due to multi-factorial cause. It can be due to anxiety or stress when you have to talk or can be familial.

You can try these to increase the fluency :
- Try to take your time rather than rushing. Speak a bit more slowly.
- Be patient with yourself and say what you want to say.
- Pause for a moment before you start to speak.
- Don't always expect the worst - sometimes it goes well.
- Get plenty of sleep.
- Eat healthy. Always have some chocolates with you. Sometimes when hungry also it can get aggravated.
- Talk about it rather than trying to hide it.

You can try some exercises:
- Loudly and clearly pronounce the vowels A, E, I, O and U. Be overly articulate and distort your face strongly, every time you utter the vowels.

- Open your jaws as wide as you can without exerting hard. While the jaws are still open, lift your tongue upwards to touch the roof of mouth with the tip of your tongue. While still in contact with the roof of your mouth, drag the tip of your tongue towards the back of your mouth. When your tongues get stretched to the maximum (without hurting), hold there for few seconds. Next pull out your tongue outside the mouth and stretch it downwards as if attempting to touch the chin. Hold in that position for few seconds. Repeat 4-5 times.

- Deep breathing exercise are very effective as they help to strengthen the respiratory organs and to relax neuromuscular tension that builds up in the body.

- Reading exercises = Speedy reading will help a subconscious identification of each word. Prefer the speed to the quality of speech. Let the words be wrongly spoken and do not stop on any particular word or syllable. This exercise, if continued for 2-3 months is very effective in relaxing muscular tension and correcting all obstructions of the speech.

- Singing and Theatre helps reduce several inhibitions and is a very effective remedy.

Foods: Chewing XXXXXXX gooseberry, Almonds, Black pepper, Cinnamon and dried dates are known to clear speech congestions. You can try them in moderate quantities.

I would suggest you to visit a speech therapist for a detailed examination and treatment.

I hope this answered your query.

With regards,
