What medications have helped you? I have a Dr. appointment soon and just wondering if there's anything that's helped you that I can request....

I'm curious as to whether you noticed any side effects of the medication? What was the effect of the drug? Was your block anticipation subdued? Or were you readily stepping into situations despite kno...

Hey, mid-30s here. I was taking Buspar for anxiety and noticed a tremendous decrease in my stuttering. I took it for a few months until my insurance ran out, and now I feel like I'm worse now than b...

what's new in treatment?

what's new in treatment? Hello all, Mid 30's male stutterer here. Is there any new breakthroughs going on in treatment? I have tried all the antipsychotic medications, that was the big treatment thi...

Right. So the psychiatrist agreed to medicate you in this way - on what grounds? Experimentation? Or did they just kinda do as you demanded?...

Dunno. I definitely think way too fast, but I don't know how to slow it down. I've even tried meditation. And medication. And hypnosis. I once tried taking extra vitamin B! Maybe the rant was too much...

I have that unluck too, my name starting with a letter I usually stutter on. Do you usually have to say those medications out loud to people?...

Stuttering pharmacy student here. It's difficult with some of these medication names let alone disease states. I find the worst drug name for me is "levothyroxine". That "thyr..." is a major stutterin...

Wow! That is quite an improvement! I would be happy with any improvement in my fluency. I have tried other drugs (klonopin, propranolol, buspar) with no luck. I am optimistic as well...do you thin...

Wow! I wanted to be in the Pagoclone drug study...I was signed up for the 3rd trial...and that obviously never panned out. How much would you say your fluency improved (10%, 15%..etc)? I have a mil...

Thanks once again for your advice. I'll definitely start the meditation and i'll talk to my speech therapist about medication. I'm afraid my anxiety will continue to grow as I'll be starting a public ...

I went to many therapists and nothing really worked. the only thing I learned is that if you don't stutter when you are alone, that's mean your stutter comes from anxiety. I noticed people are taking...

I'm very curious as to how well CBD would manage stuttering. Inhalation would deliver the fastest relief, but an edible or tincture would provide longer lasting relief, which may be more suitable for...

I stutter when I'm talking on the phone

I stutter when I'm talking on the phone For some reason I tend to stutter when I'm talking on the phone with people, but not so much in face to face conversation. I have identified the words that I s...

No-no! _First_ consult with the doctor, _then_ change the medication (if need be) in a controlled fashion. This isn't just a vitamin pill, it's complicated medicine....

That's strange, I've heard dopamine antagonists actually reduce stuttering. Discuss this with your doctor....

I've wondered the same thing. I've stuttered my entire life, at this point I've just accepted that it's never really going to get better. I was diagnosed with Bipolar disorder when I was 17 and I've b...
