I also should try Magnesium and see if that works. What supplement do you use?...

That's odd, in America benzos are prescribed quite frequently, while antidepressants are sparingly prescribed for teens because of suicide risk. I wonder if Xanax or Vallium would work better for you....

I personally don't view my stuttering as a disability. Some people have their "thing" they have to deal with. For some people that is depression, bipolar disorder, autism, cancer, cerebral palsy -- th...

The Morning Meeting

The Morning Meeting I conducted the morning meeting twice in a row...with no complications. No stuttering at all. At first I was a lil nervous, but I cracked a couple of jokes, got em laughing a lil b...
