I am sure there are many people who are having to endure life with a speech impediment. My name is Steve Hill and I had a problem with my own speech which started when I was just four years of age. The problem that I had is known as stammering or stuttering and caused me many frustrations, it even made me consider, for a short period of time, taking my own life. Now some people may laugh at this and say that I am lying but ask any person who has a stutter and they will explain to you just how hard life can be. What I needed to find was a cure for stuttering as I was determined that one day I would be able to talk free from the fear of stuttering.

I attended speech therapy throughout the eighteen years that I had the stutter. I have to say that I was rather disappointed with the treatment and advice that I was given, perhaps I was also partly to blame as I could have possibly tried harder to make it work. What annoyed me greatly however was that these so called specialists kept informing me that there was not a cure for stuttering and that basically I would have this horrible stutter for the rest of my life. As you might be able to imagine, this would leave me feeling very positive about the future, not!

As I became a young adult I started to look to alternative avenues in my search for a stuttering cure. This led to further disapointments as I now heard that the so called national association in England also believed that there was not a cure.

After getting over the initial shock and frustration I decided that I would attempt to find the cure to stammering/stuttering myself. I am by nature a very determined person, I also believe that I have brains, some may disagree stating that I left the education system aged sixteen. I only left school at this age because the stutter was making my school life extremely difficult.

After a year of attempting to achieve fluency, I finally managed to achieve my goal. That was eleven years ago, I can not describe how good it feels to be free from those horrible stuttering demons.
