That's why you stutter 

The whims of the tribes have created assumptions and myths about the tribes. But the fact is that research cannot fully determine the reasons.

What does it mean to originate?

According to the Stuttering Association, stuttering is a diagnosis that is characterized by problems in getting ahead in their speech. This happens even though people know what they want to say. Just over one percent of the population originated and a majority are men.

The most common symptom of stuttering is that certain sounds, words and syllables are blocked and repeated. It is also common to have problems getting started with the speech.

Why do you stutter?

Exactly why they originate is not yet determined, but researchers assume it is due to a whole host of causes. For these reasons, researchers can say with certainty that psychological factors play a role in why certain strains. This can be observed when people who are tribal become nervous or stressed and the tribes worsen.

Likewise, it works the other way around: If a person who normally stems becomes happy and excited, the problems can disappear temporarily.

Physical causes of stuttering

In addition, there are purely physical factors that can play into whether a person originates. In some cases, the speech apparatus may be blocked. This in turn causes the air passage to be blocked. Genetics are also believed to play a role. It is estimated that just over half of all tribes have a family member who suffers from the same problems.

That is why children are born

Often, stuttering in children begins when they are between two and five years old. But stemming as a child does not have to mean doing it as an adult: Five percent of the population stems as children, but only a quarter of these develop since adulthood.

Also, it is not obvious that children stutter all the time. Often, periods of stuttering are followed by perfectly fluent speech. It is also common for young children to try to find shortcuts in the speech - but stumble upon the words that instead become a stuttering.

However, the fact that the child does not stutter all the time can be a bit of a curse. The whims of the condition can cause the child to get phobia for speaking to people because they do not know if a stuttering is coming.

How to handle a stuttering child

1. Speak slowly and let the conversation take time.
2. Let the child speak well and do not fill in.
3. Focus on what the child is good at and praise the child. This builds up the child's self-confidence.
4. Show that you love the child just as it is

That's why you don't stutter when you sing

Many tribes can sing without problems. Even talking in tact is easier than just speaking straight out. What this is due to is not determined, but according to the speech therapist Lovisa Femrell, who answered questions in the Aftonbladet, it can be effective to step into a role or change dialect. However, this is only a temporary solution, the tribes eventually return. Another theory she brings up, about why one does not stutter when singing, is that the speech is in the left hemisphere - while the song is in the right.

You can do this to reduce your stuttering

The youth reception recommends that people diagnosed with stuttering should challenge themselves and participate in discussions. You can start gently, with a word or a question, to eventually go further in the discussions. It is also a good idea to start in smaller groups and practice in front of the mirror first.

Another alternative is to talk to a speech therapist and get a diagnosis.

The speech therapist assesses the stuttering by talking to the patient and analyzing his speech. There, the speech therapist makes an assessment based on the speech behavior and how much the stuttering affects the patient's everyday life. This way, there is the opportunity to get an aid that gives a delayed feedback of the speech, which reduces stuttering.
