I want to go to a physiatrist and take dopamine antagonist medications. Do you have experience to share? 💊📝 Hello everybody, this is Mattia. I'm 33 and I stutter since childhood. I have a moderate stutter, sometimes severe. I read that dopamine antagonist meds (same meds to treat bipolar, schizofrenia and Tourette) could help for stuttering. Do you ever tried to take these meds? What are your experiences? For more info at Dr. Gerald Maguire's work look at: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnins.2020.00158/full https://youtu.be/I9AcPP3MWuk https://youtu.be/u_7GWKEOrdk A big hug to all of you 🤗
