I am at the age (71 in 2024) that I enjoy sharing my own life experiences with younger people, in the hope that they may somehow benefit. I will take this opportunity now. I should first say - indeed, stress - that I have no formal education in medicine or psychology. I can only share what I have learned by my own experience and reading about stuttering. I should also say that my stuttering was especially severe and very resistant to treatment. I have stuttered since early childhood. During childhood and into my early 20’s, I was treated by several speech therapists. They used what was then called “behavioral modification”, which I believe was a rudimentary form of what is now called “cognitive behavioral therapy”. The therapy had no effect during childhood. It had some effect in my early 20’s, but was temporary. My stuttering became even more of an issue in my 30’s, because it was causing even greater difficulty for me, especially professionally. Because of my prior experiences, I believed that resuming speech therapy would be fruitless, so I decided to “be my own doctor”. I read widely and deeply, including medical journals, and learned that some physicians had found by accident or trial-and-error that certain medications helped some adult stutterers. I did not recognize any pattern as to which ones helped which people, but God intervened by giving me a primary care physician who agreed to prescribe whatever medications I requested. By trial-and-error, I found that a combination of some type of SSRI and a medication specifically designed to treat anxiety helped me a great deal. Regarding anxiety, buspirone works for some stutterers, but did not for me. Had Xanax been available, I would have then tried it. But it was not, so I tried Clorazepate. It has helped me a great deal; indeed “it changed my life”. But I do not recommend it, because of its side-effects; early on, Clorazepate had a sedative effect, and I once fell asleep while driving on an interstate at 70mph and was almost killed. I had a second traffic accident that could have ended badly, but did not. Clorazepate also slows down cognitive functioning among people my age, which is a very serious issue. Regarding an SSRI, Prozac worked. But what will work for some people may not for others. My guess would be to first try Prozac; if that does not work, try Zoloft. If that does not work, consider Paxil. But exercise caution with Paxil; it is the strongest SSRI that I know of. I later recognized that the many years of stuttering and associated experiences had caused me to have mental health problems. Those problems were unknowingly (by me) being alleviated by the SSRI and anti-anxiety meds. Consequently, I do not know to what degree the effect of those meds on my stuttering was direct or indirect. I wish I did. On the other hand, depending on your situation, this question may be irrelevant. It is my understanding that new research has found that two medications of a very different type may help, those are Olanzapine and Risperidone. Warning: people my age are recommended not to take Olanzapine. A type of medication very different from those I have discussed, Memantine, does help some stutterers. (This is consistent with recent medical research that suggests that blood flow within the brain may influence stuttering). Even at this time (2024), the FDA has not approved any medications for treatment of stuttering. Given my own experience and reading, I would say the following: • In the majority of cases, children who begin stuttering in early childhood, for reasons not fully understood by experts in this field, will permanently cease stuttering without any type of speech therapy. In my opinion, it depends in part on the parenting abilities of the parents, the degree to which they have educated themselves about raising children who stutter, overall conditions within the home, bullying at school, and the severity of the biological basis of the child’s stuttering. If your child’s stuttering does not improve and becomes a problem, I recommend speech therapy. But not just “speech therapy”, get speech therapy designed for stuttering. If that is not effective, I recommend further intervention of some type; perhaps family counseling or psychological counseling of the child that is focused on the “entire child”, not the stuttering. • Bullying during childhood is even more of a problem now than when I was a child, because of social media. Preteen and teenage girls can be especially hurtful, usually to other girls. I have read of social media dialogue so vicious that I was appalled; there have even been cases that ended with suicide by the child being bullied. (Yes, this is the society in which we now live). I recommend that you monitor your child’s online activity. • If a person has stuttered since childhood and still does by his early 20’s, and received lengthy cognitive behavioral therapy in both of those times, continuing that type of therapy alone is very unlikely to be fruitful. • If you have stuttered since childhood and still do by your early 20’s, you need to take responsibility for your life. It is YOU who has to identify what type of help you need, where to obtain that help, and how to pay for it. (Acquiring the help may entail additional health care insurance). • If a person has stuttered since childhood and still does by his early 20’s, the continued stuttering may have caused mental health disorders. Perhaps depression, PTSD, or some type of personality disorder regarding having normal relationships with other people. If so, he needs help from a psychologist or even a psychiatrist. In either case, try to find one who has patients who stutter. I recommend that the person seek that help NOW. The older he gets, the more emotional damage he will have incurred, and the more damage he will have done to his life. • Employment is a very important and very difficult issue. The “wisdom of Solomon” is needed here. My best advice is to begin by identifying occupations that are hiring sizeable numbers of people. Look as broadly geographically as is feasible for you. Then identify an aptitude you have that matches one of those occupations, and is an occupation in which the need for speaking is not as great as in other occupations. Then get twice as good at that type of work as non-stutterers. Also do extensive reading on how to get a job; dozens of books about this are widely available. • I will offer some free psychological help to a stutterer: (A) Accept yourself. As a person, you are probably no worse or better than the average person. Indeed, you may be better, in that you will have developed greater compassion for people than you have otherwise. (B) Step out of your comfort zone and make friends. (C) Find an activity in which you help other people in some way. (D) Exercise. If you do so by walking, I recommend using a treadmill or grass, because it places much less impact on your knees than pavement. This is advice from someone who “has been there”, and for a long time.

I carry such a very high level of respect and admiration for booth, Matthew and Gunnar. They have mannaged to conduct a good and respectable life style with morals and stayed out of the tabloids. Their fame and fortune has not gone to their heads and they don't seem to place themselves above anyoe else. Definitely not the spoiled brats of celebrity parents born with silver spoons in their mouths. Two good and respectible men with good heads on their shoulders. Their bond for each other is like no other I have known of and soooo fantastic. I wish them both, and their families many, many more years of good fortune and do hope to see them perform live someday!!! I became a huge fan of their father back in the very early 60s. I had found a 45 rpm record of Ricky Nelson at my grandpa's house and decided to play it on his record player while he mowed the grass. I got caught and scolded good for messing with his record player and was told "HANDS OFF" very, very firmly... I liked the song and music of Ricky Nelson very well and gave it a second shot when grandpa went back outside to finish the grass. I got caught again, but this time I got a good "BUTT WHOOPIN" and grounded to the chair. I gave it a 3rd shot again, and finally got to hear the whole song with my butt still a little on the warm side. I got away with it that time and loved Ricky Nelson and his music ever since.🤔😜😂. I guess the 3rd time is really a charm and the "BUTT WHOOPIN" was well worth it ...LOL

he doesnt sound nothing like he does of the movies lol

I love the Nelson brothers for so many reasons. Amazing souls and amazing music

When was this interview?

It was great to see them again. I miss their weekly show.

Sandy needs to tell the truth she cheated on her first husband. She is a phony

Charles Forstman in Suits. Amazingly played and very fascinating to see that the private equity film character is addicted to coke in real life.

Hospice is amazing. They provide so much for those they serve. It is not just for the last days because Hospice helped with very young grandson, my brother and my father. They helped in ways that you don't even think about.

And those are the days of our lives! Love them!!!!

Love this

Hey I have a stutter. Stuttering is not caused by thoughts going too fast. Stuttering is neurological that can be more severe due to anxiety. But anxiety does not cause stuttering alone, it can amplify it but it does not cause it. Stuttering is neurological and people who have a stutter like myself can’t help it.

My buddies Eric and Eliza. Love them so much.

They are, yes I know Mr. Hayes has gone home, lovely, giving people. The Hayes' for years helped out the West Texas Rehab. They brought class, laughs and educations for this cause.

I’m 64 years old and remember these two actors in the TV soap called, Days of Our Lives. My mother watched this show for many years while raising myself and my siblings.

My father once fixed a TV set for Hal Linden’s mother.

They look like their pop. Boy, are they talented.

Here, Bill paints us beautiful pictures, that shoot straight into that vulnerable and intensely personal and private spot, hidden deep within all of our hearts. Mr. Shatner makes certain that this picture is indelibly printed thereon. All is Fractal.
