I know this is like a year old so I don’t even know why I’m Commenting on this but you’re right to be weary about people suggesting cures. I “discovered” that Xanax borderline cured my stutter when I ...

It helps if I'm drunk. If I'm not, there might be some effect, but less noticeable. If I drink more today, I will need more tomorrow to reach a similar effect. The more you drink over a period of ti...

Temporary fix, I'd only use it for a social drinking situation. Definitely not something to depend on, as it can have real bad side effects and bring you alot of other problems that you don't want or ...

Weed helps "sometimes". I think it's more of the fact that I'm relaxed and not in an anxious fight/flight mode than it is the actual smoking. L-theanine helps with relaxation....

Using alcohol to help with your anxiety is a short term, losing strategy. At best, it will help you with that particular moment but it won’t help you address the issues deep down. At worst, it’ll ruin...
