Title: My speech skills are decaying.
Post by: Dax Declan on March 09, 2015, 06:41:27 PM

Lately my stuttering is becoming much worse. I try to slow down and that doesn't help at all. And m words are becoming extremely slurred. They sound clear as day to me but other people can't seem to understand me. I try and enunciate but that doesn't help. I'm not really sure what to do.

Don't stop talking to poeple. if you are uncomfortable talking in real life, then do voice chats over skype and similar. if you stop talking, you will deteriorate further and faster. I know that from experience.

Talk with someone who specializes in speech therapy.

If you don't already go to a speech therapist, consider it, they can be very helpful!

Sadly my parents would never take me to one. And my school doesn't offer a speech program. Once I get my Liscense in 6 months I'll consider it. And I live in a rural so speech therapy might be difficult to find.
