I still stutter, but when I stopped taking celexa for a bit (prescribed for anxiety) I noticed it got worse again. When I first started it, my good friend/coworker at the time said my speech improved also. Mine is certainly perpetuated by anxiety. As a child, I remember being told to “take my time” while speaking and I was, I guess, or that wasn’t the issue. It just made me more anxious and self-aware I was messing up. Anyway, agreed addressing anxiety, maybe with meds, can help a bit!
