What medications have helped your speech, now or in the past I understand there is a rule regarding medication on this sub but I'm not asking where to source drugs or anything, I would just like to hear fellow stutterers/speech block havers experiences with prescription medications. I am asking this in good faith so please mods, please help a brother out and leave this post up. But I am looking into medication to treat my depression, but I figured while I was at it I would try a medication that could treat my speech as well. I'm so tired of this shit, speech therapy doesn't work and my speech is at its worst when I'm around my loved ones, whenever I'm having a good time, as opposed to when I'm nervous or talking to strangers like one may think. But I'd love to hear people's experiences on what prescription meds have helped your speech in the past, I'm so tired of not being able to talk properly, I don't let it get to me but it's truly such a damper on the way I navigate thru life
