question about Prozac Hey! So I have a mild stutter that is worsened when I’m anxious or have to speak infront of a crowd of people. I also suffer from anxiety. I was recommended a SSRI , Prozac , to take to help eliminate the negative thoughts/anxiety. I know it is not a cure for stuttering. I am taking it with the hopes that I can become more comfortable just living without having constant thoughts that I suck and debating 20 million times how I’m going to do something. My question is has anyone taken a SSRI for other reasons than stuttering? How did it treat you? Did you find it worsened your stutter? Thank you
