Um, hello world :)

Hello to everyone!

Alright, I stumbled across this website while randomly searching information about stuttering since I am intrigued by it and some other stuff that has popped up in the family recently (ADHD, Asperger's, etc)

I do stutter and know very little about why I have it and exactly what it is. So, that led me to here. Since I know absolutely no one who stutters I thought I would look here since it looks like a nice place to talk about it, learn some stuff, and get some answers to my questions. I tell you, it is hard living with this "disability" (though I never really treated it like one and wasn't even aware that it was one) and not knowing a darn thing about it lol.

Thanks!

Heya,

It is believed that, in some cases, stuttering (or 'stammering') is caused by stress or nerves - do you feel that this is the case for you? The other causes are listed here: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/stutte ... ION=causes

You should check out the Asperger's Forum on this website, as it is quite active and you will be sure to get aresponse there to anything that you ask.

Take care
Kevin
