Controlling your Emotions

[Manpreet singh]

This is also one of the important aspect that can help us to maintain our fluency.

Just last night I was drunk and enjoying with ma cousins and friends.My speech was so fluent coz i was uncouncious at that time. I talked non stop for atleast 1 hour and didnt stammered on a single word. But due to this I got too much excited and stammered a lil bit on a word unluckily.And that was it.

One of my cousins started copying my stammering speech and makingfun of me. There were about 15 people over there and all started staring at me.Suddenly I became councious and that feeling of embarrassment came back and I felt like crying. But some how I managedto control maself and kept on talking without caring much about all of them staring at me.

That whole time from that party untill i reached home was like a nightmare to me. It was a time during which I didnt thought of anything else other then that embarrassing moment.It was the most embarrassing moment in ma life.It was just that single incident coming into ma mind again and again.But I know that i ve to face these kindaa situations in future too. Soi ve to be strong from inside in order to face these kind of embarrassing situations.

And one more thing was, that my cousins were also drunk and may be he didnt mean to do that (copying my stammer).

Anywayz, bcoz of this incident I am able to learn how to control our Emotions, bcoz they also play a vital role in our stammering.

So If you are also a stammerer or stutterer and if some one makes fun of your stammer and tries to copy your speech in front of group of people , you should just pass a smile and dont bother about this.Dont let these embarrassing moments to get accumulated in the Emotional part of ur mind. Just let it go.....!!!

I knw what you are trying to say. I was also the same a couple of months ago. but then someone told me that these kindaa incidents leave a huge impact on ur emotions which inturn will affect ur speech also. So try to treat it as a part of ur life.

If we speak fluent one day, we become so happy and if the next day we stammer and cant get a single word out without stammering, we get upset. So this clearly shows that our emotions are controlling us .
Just act normal whether you speak with a stammer or not. No need to get that extra happiness and depression depending upon our speech.

You are right, of course,but sometimes when something like that happens,it hurts deeply,and it's very hard to smile and don't bother about it, believe me, I know....If I could get to that point,it would be wonderful.
