I stutter, and I've done it for as long as I can remember. Anyone know how to beat it? I feel this has pretty significant (negative) effects on my life, because I'm often afraid of speaking up in a group, as stuttering is extremely embarrassing.

I've read that singing can allow people who stutter to speak relatively normally, since it uses a different part of the brain to normal speech.
