Please how can I help my friend with a strong problem of stammering. It's making him feel this low self esteem.

People are physically challenged... People are in the hospitals.. People have serious knock knees.. People have bow legs... People have bad breath...



So your friend should be thankful. And appreciate himself.

He shouldn't feel bad
He should just accept the whole thing like that

There are people in worse conditions

keep praying for him....thou have never heard it being cured before

Lol.


Just help him work on his self concept

Oh, how I wish ur friend could read 'How to talk to anyone anytime and anywhere' by Larry King..
In it There are stories of Chronic Stammerers who have excelled in their seperate fields coz they refused to shy away from their condition, refuse to be intimidated and few other tips

You wanna help ur friend? Get him that book and who knows? Reading stories of ppl like him in high places might go a long way in increasing his self esteem.

Then keep praying for him; Low self esteem can be a dangerous thing

@ OP, you just remind me of a friend like that back days in primary school. My guy will have to turn his neck to 360 degree like fowl with flu before he could talk we go laugh tire.......

Well, just tell him to always talk gently and one after the other.

Remind him of sir wilson churchil.

Thank me later

I have two friends that do hard starting and I feel bad about it, especially when I see one of them that slaps himself just to get the words out. I used to do hard starting too but I managed to overcome it. The only time you notice it is when I am very very angry. It can be mastered if you can control the speed of your speech. I thank God for my life.

I never knew there's a condition like this. I had a friend, he's late now, he used to twist his neck whenever he's really into a discussion but I thought it was just a bad habit.


I used to stammer when I was small, how I got over it, I don't know.

Some outgrown their own while some learn to control theirs. Speech impediment isn't funny walahi.

It's not o my brother even though some find it funny and even make jest of the victim. I think the best way to control them is by learning to reduce the speed of ones speech, with time, things will get better.

He can also approach a speech therapist. That will go a long way to help.

I am very sure that he's good at doing some things. More likely singing. Let him focus on what he's good at doing
