>According to me, with suitable medicine and breathing and reading exercises, stuttering can be treated (without techniques). Is the medicine even necessary then? I know we've been hopping people (including kids) up on amphetimines, "anti-depressants" (with no science behind them), etc. since the 1990s, but who wants to take some pill that screws with your brain? Don't we have other things that don't fry your brain, like the Edinburgh Masker and later variants?
