First Step

My stammer is what labels me beside my wisdom to some and my craziness to others. The reason I’m labeled by it, is that I stammered since I was four, which makes it a big part of my life and in some phases my whole life. Since I have stammered for 23 years, I have got enough experience to know what a stammerer needs other than speech therapy.

It is support that a stammer is most in need for; people who knows how she/he feels, who will listen to them and not be bothered by their blocking, repeating or even choosing to remain silent.

You stammer as me? I will listen to you as you wish people would do. No time pressure, no eye contact avoidance, no awkward looks and will concentrate on your talk not the way you talk.

You stammer as me? I will feel you and understand it when you say “I’m clever and have many to say but just can’t get it out the way I want” or “talking in meetings and presentations are my worst nightmares”.

You stammer as me? Contact us on Kuwaitstutter@gmail.com, and be a member in Kuwait Stutter Group, a dream of an association on its first step.
