Some treatments work for some stutterers. Some people with ADHD and Autism still don’t find any relief from their treatments. All these issues that have been brought up are incredibly complex and th...

I believe it's more like selective mutism, unless you're saying selective mutism is a form of stuttering? Which it isn't. >If I had to use it, I would only take it before a job interview or someth...

Just finished my trial. Pretty sure I was on it as I had a minor side effect. Zero positive change in my speech … if anything it got a little worse on it....

I had a podcast guest, and she tried CBD for her stutter and the outcome was severe drowsiness, lethargy, and unable to focus; no change in her stutter....

I tried it and it was decent but I absolutely hated the shade effect of feeling nauseous. Once I finally threw up I stopped using it....

Benzo is definitely useful for panic attacks but yes, tolerance and addiction will build quickly if you take it everyday....

obviously not, this sounds like the typical fake advice non stutterers say. if anything this makes it worse for me because I overthink where I'll stutter...

I did them on and off for about 12 years. I still try but I lack consistency. Additionally the most common breath watching type meditation is really hard for me, because as soon as I close my eyes neg...

November 18, 2022 Thank you for signing up for information regarding the Speak Freely research study for adults who have been stuttering since childhood (https://speakfreelyregistry.researchstudytria...

Is it possible that there will be medication for stuttering in the foreseeable future?

Is it possible that there will be medication for stuttering in the foreseeable future? Hey, I stumbled on an article from Maguire et al. (2020) who discuss the treatment of stuttering via medication. ...

My experience is anecdotal ofc, but my experience with DAF is a bad one. I was blown away by how well it worked at first, then over time the effect started to disappear. Over a couple of months it com...

I’ve noticed it doesn’t work like that. I fly for work every couple of months and take Xanax when I fly. When I take the Xanax after taking my vyvanse my speech blocks are still bad....

Hey….I was in the same limbo. I start my ADHD meds first time this week and noticed some same effects. I started on Sandoz Mixed salts and noticed more blocks than usual....

I’m pretty stimulant heavy so probably need to start cutting back as I’m definitely having diminishing returns. Vyvanse, coffee every morning and vaping throughout the day. I’ve noticed that when stim...

Yeah the Vyvanse was much worse, but I don't remember the dose. So I can't rule that out as the cause. That was 4 or 5 years ago. We took him off of the ADHD meds completely for about 3 years. (I'm r...

Yes, my son has ADHD and a severe blocking stutter. Vyvanse nearly rendered him mute for the short time he was on it. We started using a whiteboard at home just to communicate with him. Right now he's...

Yes. I was diagnosed with adhd at 45 and put on adderall. I have blocks on glottal vowels. My stuttering has never been worse. But also my stress has never been higher....

Stuttering and adderall

Stuttering and adderall I’ve stuttered since I was a kid but the worst for me was speech blocks. I totally stopped with speech blocks from ages 14-30. I was prescribed adderall from 10-14, but quit ta...

I used to take Celexa. I felt nauseous the first time I took it but got over it. After I had the dosage increased I threw up. That's when I decided that I'd rather just stutter than taking something t...

I think you have just mentioned all the medicatons there are that could potentially reduce stuttering. SSRIs, Benzos and antipsychotics. For me personally Lexapro (SSRI) did help reduce some stutter...
