I've been abusing xanax for years because I believe it greatly lessens my stutter. I wish I could get a prescription but I've never been able to get it. I've had a sever stutter my entire life. The anxiety and stress has been a social nightmare. When I take xanax, usually one tab before I start working I'm able to slow down my speech enough to get through the day. I don't usually take more than that because I drink sometimes after work but I definitely can see a huge difference it makes.
