This really is nice but before I speak my anxiety takes over and its very tough to talk in the start and I have the same tik that you are talking about.
Hi Hanan, Anxiety is obviously very crippling for you! Although you can manage some forms of anxiety with through deep breathing, it's more likely to be managed with behavioural techniques. I'm planning to produce a course soon regarding this problem. If you're interested, please sign up to my mailing list here: www.jimmycannon.com/
It definitely has to do a lot with a certain psychological background and level of self-awareness. For example, when I don't even think of stuttering or of the problem itself, I am less likely to stutter. On the other hand, when I am conscious about it, or of the situation I'm in at that particular time (for example knowing that there are people watching me, listening to me, and worst case scenario judging me) then the stutter becomes worse and worse. It certainly is absurdly frustrating because it makes you look like you're either a fool or plainly stupid and I personally HATE it, because I know my potential. I guess caring too much about what people say and not having enough self-confidence really takes a toll on this issue.
Thanks for sharing. Yes, generally the perceived anxiety of people judging you is more likely to make you stutter before you've even started a conversation.
This is the exact same thing I’ve been experiencing, you literally spoke the words in my mind., how are you overcoming this? I’m usually speaking fine until I feel someone listening to me or judging me😢
@@schkeithad5689 Hi! I think it's extremely difficult to overcome it all alone by figuring yourself out. I've been doing that for years. To answer your question...well, I sometimes endorse an attitude of internal arrogance and selfishness as a defense mechanism, which means putting myself first, above all. Then, I realized that slowing down helps a lot, actually. (I have a tendency to think and speak very fast, in so far as sometimes syllables intertwine, lol). Stabilizing your tempo will certainly help, but there's also an immense amount of self-care: don't go too hard on yourself, don't compare yourself to anyone else (instead strive to be better than yesterday), and realize that nobody is perfect (because even if you have this tendency, probably, to be jealous on others due to their fluency, they certainly have other flaws, which you don't). I also leant that proper articulation also helps. I, for instance, speak 4 languages, two of which are native. The more and the better I try to articulate words, the more it helps. However, sometimes, it's all for naught when negative thoughts and feelings overshadow all the hard work your putting in to better your situation. This is unfortunate, but it's part of life, for better or for worse. It's ying and yang... You can't always win, just as well as you won't always lose. Another issue would be your self love. Unfortunately, if you won't love your whole self, just as it is, no one will truly do...and you can't wait for others to come in for the rescue. Love your own self, it's you, just the way you are, it's precisely what makes you, you. As hard as it may seem, we also have to embrace our demons to conquer them. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Take care and be brave~ At the end of the day, we're all just miserable human beings, each in their own way. Your flaw doesn't make you ANY less than anybody else. Remember this!
Automatically abdomen, chest,throat tightness , because we hold the breathing tight when we feel nerves about stuttering word. So deep breathing from abdomen will relax abdomen muscle, then deep breathing will reduce chest tightness . Finally relax throat muscle and inhale and exhale deep breath. Focus abdomen, chest throat relaxation by deep breathing. Focust deep breathing all times. This technique will reduce 50% statammer. So focus about what happens when we stuttering Speech muscle tightness....
I was stuttering, but now I speak! lol Many thanks for helping me "set" and "power" my breathing upon my strong abs. Speak in a job interview with the ease of Captain America? (wobbling, fists up) "I can do this all day!" like Steve Rogers says!
Thanks so much for the help! Definitely some very useful tips for me. I've had a problem where I can't say words starting with vowels properly (especially on 'e' sounds like 'end') - it feels like something just clogs up and I just can't get any air out. It's fine when I'm more relaxed and I'm talking smoothly, but in some situations I end up kind of choking, and I have to restart my sentence. I'm not sure how helpful of a description this is, but where would you say the problem lies?
Hi Oscar, the reaction is probably a somatic one based on anxiety at some point in your life. There’s a lot to delve into, and here’s not the best place to discuss.. I would for the time being suggest glottal exercises by creating sub glottal pressure before you start a word such as ‘end’ I’ll try and dig out a video. Please consider subscribing as well as joining my mailing list at jimmycannon.com I’m planning to create some courses/webinars soon on specific areas...
I have the same problem. It goes like my mind is scanning all the words I wanted to say and it tries to avoid the words starting from vowels. Some days in the month I feel very confident and would decide that I'll not stammer from now on in my life. And some days it's feels like 'I better be quite and if I open my mouth it would start stammering again' I have analysed my mouth and came up with some solutions: 1 (as shown in the video) Take a deep breathe and speak on the exhale 2 Distract your mind by using your hand while speaking(which also helps in communication skills :) 3 I imagine that some one is doing the word(especially verbs) that I wanted to say in front of my eyes 4 I speak the next letter of the word(for eg. saying 'Animation' - nn-i-ma-tion or saying 'Enemy' - nn-i-mm-i 5 (maybe you have noticed it or not) Your mind reminds you that 'you stutter' 5-10-15mins after you wake up. So try to get your mind busy when you wake up. 6 You may do some weird thing while speaking your 'so called hard word' (for eg. I push my whole tongue to the roof and do up and down in loop I don't know why) 7 Don't try to avoid the 'so called hard word'. Speak that word, don't try to use synonyms of the word. And Finally you know this problem doesn't have any proven fixes BECAUSE 'this ain't a problem'. Yes you read that correctly. This ain't a problem. You keep reminding yourself that you stutter(but you don't) You tell yourself that 'I can't overcome this'(but you can) God is testing your strength, show him your strength. Don't forget that one day we both will speak fluently and BELIEVE in your self as I do my friend. Thank you ❤️
I do stutter when I was13 yrs nd all the time nd now I am 21, and it puts me into the situation where I can't keep my point of view in front of others.. so I really don't know what to do about that..I'm gonna try this tips and hope these tips help me
Im 29 almost 30 and have dealt with stuttering my entire life... On some real shit it wierd but if I sing or Rap I don't stutter.. it's really frustrating not being able to verbally express your self the way you want to so I will try and re word it and use easier words for me to say, and if it's someone who doesn't know me they automatically assume im stupid. I have certain points in time through out my life that my speech improves it seems to correspond with how I'm doing at that point in time. So yes I realized my problem is the disappointment I feel and the regret if what were supposed to be my best years
I'm sorry that you're going through this. Singing uses the right hemisphere of the brain. This is why I recommend using intoning and flow to help the connection between the breath and the sound when you're speaking.
Thanks for useful tips sir. I'm 74 my normal speech is fine but I get stuck up at times like words starting with Tr Fr Lr Mr Kr ki Su etc. Any suggestions ?
Glad you like the videos. It's not a complete fix, but try starting with a breathy onset. i.e practice joining the breath to the sound and relaxing your belly.

Hello Jimmy. I absolutely loved your video. ❤ I’ve few questions from you. I’m 23 years old and a female. I’ve a stutter. And it’s literally ruining my life. It has made me feel completely hopeless. I’ll tell you what exactly I face ; 1) I can’t sometimes let some words out of my mouth no matter whatever I do. And to let them out I often have to distort my face to let them out. 2) whenever I speak I feel as if ive no air left. Even after saying a little. Also the speech blocks. These are my Major 3 issues and I don’t know what to do about them. They are legit making my life miserable.
I'm sorry you're going through this. It would be very difficult to offer you any help without seeing you. Please consider booking a call here: calendly.com/jimmycannonvoicecoach/discovery-call-with-jimmy-cannon

Hello!I have difficulty when saying words starting with vowels!Any special tip about it?And also when I have to speak in a foreign language which I know very well,I feel very anxious!I need all the help I can get!Thank you!
Hi Ledia, Practice starting with an aspirate onset (breathy) and use the air to start the sound. It's more likely that your abdominal muscles are tensing just before you go to speak the sound, so by letting air out first will relax the muscles and allow the sound to phonate.
I most times get stuck in my abdomen when speaking or wants to speak. With no means to get my voice out for almost a minute. Is this still stuttering How do I go about treating it
I don't understand myself, I sing clearly and when I'm talking to myself I don't stutter but when in presence of people I do stutter and feel stressful and angry
You're feeling frustrated with yourself for feeling like this. Give yourself a break, because speaking anxiety and feeling anxious when talking to more than one person is very common. You first have to understand why you're feeling anxious. Happy to help...
Ive been stuttering for about 10 year, now im 15 and its rll bothering me in daily life. Im afraid to get into stiations when i must speak, i scared of dialogue with strangers, because im always afraid what they will think about me. In me childhood till maybe 12-13 yo I've not pay attention on stutter, but now it's really uncomfortable, because i want to speak, i want to communicate with people and i want to be very open person. But my stutter doesn't let me. I feel very sad some weeks, because i realised that i lost a lot of times that i could spent on working on my problem, but i didnt. I hope i can overcome stuttering, i searched for a lot og tips, i know a lot exercises how to reliase the tension in my throat when i speak and spek slo-o-owly, but in real life i don't have time to use it. I wish luck to people who stutter. Be strong!
Thanks for your comment and I'm sorry that you're going through this right now in your life. I would suggest visiting your GP to discuss your options. There is quite a lot you can do these days depending on the severity of the stammer.
Practice pushing through the sound with constant breath support. Here's a video on intoning, which I think will help. Let me know how you get on... ruclips.net/video/4L1L9e3Ptfg/видео.html

I stutter til this day and it has been goin on since I remember lol so 18yrs. When I'm out in public and when I start speaking I start to stutter and get a lil anxiety and nervousness. I try to stop and breathe and relax and start over and SOMETIMES it works but other times it doesn't. So if you can respond that would be great. Ik I'm probably late 😭
Hi there, I'm sorry you're going through this. Controlling your breath and your onsets (the start of the sound) is crucial to managing your stutter, but it all depends on how bad it is. If you're really struggling, I would suggest that you find a clinician to help with the psychological implications.
I stutter. I mostly stutter on words that begin with the letter "S". When I am asked to read out loud and I see an upcoming word with the letter "S" my chest gets really tight and I want to just poof and disappear. I am in college and I have speech class coming up next semester. I practice the deep breathing and slowing down which both help but I have yet to conquer that elusive letter "S". Do you have any suggestions? Thank You. I am planning on being an author and orator.
These are all mostly psychogenic, so you really need to explore the cause of the stutter, a past event for instance, and seek perhaps therapy if voice sessions don't work, however, the breathing will for sure help. Let me know how you get on.

Hi Chandan, This is a somatic response to anxiety brought on by talking to a stranger, which could be caused by many things, behavioural or otherwise... Practice your breathing and intoning. Happy to help!
im 19 ,and ive been stuttering all my life. the only thing which comes to my head is suicide . my stuttering has always made me dumb ,stupid and useless....the worst part is when the teacher asks a question and i already know the answer but cant spit a word cuz i knw im gonna stutter.... living with a 0 percentage if hope .( sorry for spreading negativity didnt want to harm anyone else ,just wanted to clear my mind)
Not a problem. I'm really sorry that you're feeling this way right now. If you haven't already I would go to your doctor and ask them to refer you to a speech therapist or perhaps a phycotherapist that will be able to help you. Good luck and stay strong.

Hi Shaun, these are very different vowel shapes and tongue placements. I would suggest that it's the anxiety that is making you stutter and some breathing and disorientation exercises would help.
My stutter is the local language is pretty less where as in English it's quite a lot of time but I'm well versed in English with writing and with the books too I have a good voice modulation but when I feel anxious I can't even read out the things that are written in a book what kinda vocal disorder is this

Hello!I have difficulty when saying words starting with vowels!Any special tip about it?And also when I have to speak in a foreign language which I know very well,I feel very anxious!I need all the help I can get!Thank you!
Hi Ledia, Practice starting with an aspirate onset (breathy) and use the air to start the sound. It's more likely that your abdominal muscles are tensing just before you go to speak the sound, so by letting air out first will relax the muscles and allow the sound to phonate.
I most times get stuck in my abdomen when speaking or wants to speak. With no means to get my voice out for almost a minute.
Is this still stuttering
How do I go about treating it
I don't understand myself, I sing clearly and when I'm talking to myself I don't stutter but when in presence of people I do stutter and feel stressful and angry
You're feeling frustrated with yourself for feeling like this. Give yourself a break, because speaking anxiety and feeling anxious when talking to more than one person is very common. You first have to understand why you're feeling anxious. Happy to help...
I know I’m late but I’ve tried everything but it feels like everything time I try to commit to a conversation I just stutter even when I’m relaxed
There are a lot of reasons why someone stutters. It depends on the severity to what diagnosis you decide.
Ive been stuttering for about 10 year, now im 15 and its rll bothering me in daily life. Im afraid to get into stiations when i must speak, i scared of dialogue with strangers, because im always afraid what they will think about me. In me childhood till maybe 12-13 yo I've not pay attention on stutter, but now it's really uncomfortable, because i want to speak, i want to communicate with people and i want to be very open person. But my stutter doesn't let me. I feel very sad some weeks, because i realised that i lost a lot of times that i could spent on working on my problem, but i didnt. I hope i can overcome stuttering, i searched for a lot og tips, i know a lot exercises how to reliase the tension in my throat when i speak and spek slo-o-owly, but in real life i don't have time to use it. I wish luck to people who stutter. Be strong!
Thanks for your comment and I'm sorry that you're going through this right now in your life. I would suggest visiting your GP to discuss your options. There is quite a lot you can do these days depending on the severity of the stammer.
Sir , I often gets stutter on the word starting with 'P' , I would be very grateful if you would give me any suggestion regarding that.
Practice pushing through the sound with constant breath support. Here's a video on intoning, which I think will help. Let me know how you get on... ruclips.net/video/4L1L9e3Ptfg/видео.html

@@jimmycannonvoicecoach Thank you sir.
I stutter til this day and it has been goin on since I remember lol so 18yrs. When I'm out in public and when I start speaking I start to stutter and get a lil anxiety and nervousness. I try to stop and breathe and relax and start over and SOMETIMES it works but other times it doesn't. So if you can respond that would be great. Ik I'm probably late 😭
Hi there, I'm sorry you're going through this. Controlling your breath and your onsets (the start of the sound) is crucial to managing your stutter, but it all depends on how bad it is. If you're really struggling, I would suggest that you find a clinician to help with the psychological implications.
Sometimes I stammer more if the environment is loud
I presume then you're speaking more loudly to compete with the noise?
Yes and that makes it hard to control my stutter
@@fadilissah3061 Try using more breath control so your throat (Larynx) is more flexible.
I stutter. I mostly stutter on words that begin with the letter "S". When I am asked to read out loud and I see an upcoming word with the letter "S" my chest gets really tight and I want to just poof and disappear. I am in college and I have speech class coming up next semester. I practice the deep breathing and slowing down which both help but I have yet to conquer that elusive letter "S". Do you have any suggestions? Thank You. I am planning on being an author and orator.
These are all mostly psychogenic, so you really need to explore the cause of the stutter, a past event for instance, and seek perhaps therapy if voice sessions don't work, however, the breathing will for sure help. Let me know how you get on.
I love your 3,4 and 5.
Thanks, glad you thought it was useful. Please let me know if there's anything I can help you with...

I'm sorry you're going through this Marc. I would suggest working on your breathing to connect the sound.
Thanks for giving such nice tips !!But my problem is different. I can talk alone loudly and fluently.
But as I start speaking which whom I want to ....unable to say my words.
Is there any exercise or tip for me. For I don’t have special words on which I stutter but the moment I have to say. I can’t say.
Hope you understand. Any medicine ??
Hi there Hammad. So you’re suffering from a form of speaking anxiety, which is very common! There are lots of ways to manage and get rid of anxiety, and in my opinion desensitisation techniques work the best. If you’re interested, in thinking about putting together a course for people who have difficulty speaking in public. Please go to my website and fill out the contact form, and I’ll let you know when the course starts.. hello@jimmycannon.com
In the pasr year when my anxiety got bad and i started to stutter really bad. Will this work with anxiety stuttering?
It will help, however I would focus on the cause of the anxiety itself first.
I stammer frequently biting my teeth what will I do pls
Hi Jimmy i have tried some of your tips but it seems my stuttering has failed to reduce. What can i do?
Sorry to hear this. If it’s not physiological, it’s probably psychological.
My problem is when we have a sentence that is being uttered i can't get it out of my mouth for example what are you going the word what i can get out for a long time. Any tips please.
But we can’t use any of these techniques on phone. For the other person cannot wait longer ??
I think you can actually. You shouldn’t feel obliged to continue speaking even on the phone. In fact, by pausing occasionally gives you more authority
I stutter at school it still not gone
I'm sorry to hear that. Is there anything that you've tried that works?
Thanku sir
thanks for the tips
My pleasure, hope they helped!!
Sir I don't stammer when I talk to myself,but if I talk to strange person then I stutter.....PLZZ overcome....
Hi Chandan, This is a somatic response to anxiety brought on by talking to a stranger, which could be caused by many things, behavioural or otherwise... Practice your breathing and intoning. Happy to help!

im 19 ,and ive been stuttering all my life. the only thing which comes to my head is suicide . my stuttering has always made me dumb ,stupid and useless....the worst part is when the teacher asks a question and i already know the answer but cant spit a word cuz i knw im gonna stutter.... living with a 0 percentage if hope .( sorry for spreading negativity didnt want to harm anyone else ,just wanted to clear my mind)
Not a problem. I'm really sorry that you're feeling this way right now. If you haven't already I would go to your doctor and ask them to refer you to a speech therapist or perhaps a phycotherapist that will be able to help you. Good luck and stay strong.

hello Jimmy, I Stutter on my tr , a's and dr and i also stutter on the word is, any tips to stop stuttering on those words?
Hi Shaun, these are very different vowel shapes and tongue placements. I would suggest that it's the anxiety that is making you stutter and some breathing and disorientation exercises would help.
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach thanks!
Also intoning to connect the breath to the sound...
@@jimmycannonvoicecoach oh I forgot to also say that I stutter on words that start with an N.
