You're allowed to say how drugs have effected you. But advising people on what to take is now against the rules. This isn't against you. It's just that we let someone blur the lines with language like...

I´m not telling him to try drugs. I only saying that it´s an option if you have tried other drug-free treatments before. I even say it could put himself in risk. Please, DON´T TAKE DRUGS FOR STUTTERIN...

Meditation is a good suggestion and it has helped me in the past. I don't think there should be any stigma around drugs though, our problem is neurological in nature and we wouldn't tell someone who i...

My stutter basically prevents me from being confident because part of that stutter is just a brain freeze/clamming up and you lose all sense of confidence. My stutter isn't easy or light, it's blockin...

Yeah, there is no quick fix. It's something you have to commit to every day, just like body exercise. I think a lot of people take that for granted. In our survey over half of stutterers didn't do any...

Well, I learned that you have to have terpenes enzymes with the CBD. You can get that from a lavender oil or something else. I made another post but it vanished, without explanation (but I have an exp...

I have also been doing some, albeit sporadic, research of this subject over the years and have recently gotten intrigued by Dr Maguire's, among others, research on 2nd gen anti-psychotics. I was plan...

I’ve tried wellbutrin and it was a horrible medication. It made me forget words and how to spell basic words. It was really bad. However, its dopamine agonist effect is often overstated. Sertraline (...

Yeah the first time i smoked a cigarette it had an insane effect on my stutter but over time it stopped working. Releasing dopamine may not be the key. What has the best evidence is blocking dopamine...
