		<description>[...] For the past year, I have featured blogs every Sunday that shared personal stories and opinions about various health topics, including ADD, bulimia and binge eating, and stuttering. Today, I&#8217;m introducing a new series called Gene Talk which will feature excerpts from blogs talking about genetics, genes, and/or DNA. [...]</description>

		<description>I recently started my own blog on stuttering because I could not find many others...but Dr. Weidig&#039;s is one of my favorites. I will be a lawyer in a few years and people often ask me why I&#039;d choose such a career, one that will definitely place me into many stressfull speaking situations. 

I guess I&#039;m just a glutton for punishment, I guess. *laugh* I love the law and always determined that, despite my stutter, I will not be held back if I can help it. I can&#039;t control how others respond to my stutter...but I can control what I do in my own life. I agree with you...Dr. Weidig has a great sense of humor and his blog has been very helpful in my research. Thanks!</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;mayfieldga&lt;/b&gt;: Thank you for the comment and for sharing your experience.  I have no way of judging the various methods for overcoming stuttering/stammering, but I&#039;m glad to hear that you have overcome it.</description>

		<description>I was a stutterer.  I feel there is another explanation for stuttering that has not been looked into.  I see all of us as acclimated layers of mental frictions, what I see as average stress.  I feel as children, when it usually begins, some of us are given many and some more substantial layers of mental frictions we are not able to rationally deal with.  I feel as layers of mental frictions accumulate, it also creates higher muscle tension.  I feel this relative higher muscle tension can constrict the diaphragm to the point of impeding air flow.  This is where the stuttering begins.  I feel over time not only is the child dealing with the higher muscle tension but also the growing habit of th diaphragm tightening up from this problem.  


I feel we can learn to more permanently reduce layers of mental frictions that have created the highe muscle tension and also over time reacclimate the diaphragm to not tighten up from habit. 

My complete process  of healling my stuttering problem is free for all on request by e-mail.  Older version with theory on site at http://learningtheory.homestead.com/Theory.html</description>
