not sure if you know or not, but they've come out with this device to help you stop stuttering and it's about 95% effective. it's a little earpiece that plays back in your ear what you're saying, but at a different pitch. it makes your brain think that you're talking along with everyone else or something and stops you from stuttering.
look into it.

he is no longer stuttering john. he now goes by his real name, john melendez, and is the announcer for the tonight show with jay leno. needless to say he has his stuttering almost 100% under control.
so is stuttering mental, physical or both? it is definately mental as the more people think about it the worse it gets. if it is also physical then what is the medical explanation?

I know who you're talking about. I usually don't stutter that much, but I emphasize "usually."
I've had several stuttering professors. In one case it was quite severe, but he was still really awesome, so we all just got used to it. In general, I don't think people think as badly of you as you mighht fear. A few asses will, of course.... but most people will not really care other than wanting you to feel comfortable.

Good grief, the devices are expensive. http://www.speecheasy.com/devices_models.html
Over $4000 🙁
Is there any way to convert an mp3 player with a mic port into somethign similar? All they do is record your speech and play it back a fraction of a second later. I say we get a fund started and offer a prize to anyone who can create such a hack.

I'm an extremely fake person, so I tend to act like those around me. Adapt to the situation, you know.
Well when I was younger, I had a boss who stuttered. And after about 3 months, I had picked up his stutter without even noticing it or thinking about it. I felt really bad about it, he must have thought I was mocking him.
I don't have the stutter anymore though.

In college I worked at a pizza place for a while and the head manager stuttered and had torrettes (sp?). Anyway he could not say the word Hawaiian to save his life, and because of his torrettes he would keep on trying forever. We used to be like hey Dave the red stuff is out (Hawaiian Punch) and he would be like the Haaaaaaa......Haaaaaaa.....Haaaaaaaa.....(10 minutes later) haaaaaaa......it was so cruel but so damn hilarious at the same time.
