How are my claims false? The medical community is bewildered by stuttering, much less pharmaceuticals that could do anything to any “symptom” or “cause” of stuttering. Most SLPs know nothing about stu...

Pharmaceutical and stuttering - just like many other medications, it treats only the symptoms. Eventually, the “disease” will remap its way around the medication and continue in full force....

It is good SHORT TERM.. but a bitch to kick after years of long term use and high dosage.. be safe.. I went cold turkey from that and several other controlled substances.. not a pretty sight but I ma...

I'm not a doctor, but I have used Xanax in the past. I'm aware that the long-term effects from benzodiazapines are pretty terrible. Xanax is highly habit forming, as others have attested to. There are...

Xanax is terrible. I discovered it as a “miracle cure” and got super addicted, ended up going to jail and almost getting a felony for possession. It made me not care about anything at all so I didn’t ...

I’d say the first couple weeks. It’s actually bettered since then… I think the first two weeks was the worst of it....

I am currently doing research about why my stuttering has been getting worse and I just started Wellbutrin not long ago. When did you notice the increase in your stutter after you started taking it?...

That’s awesome, I’m happy for you. When I was younger I had real issues with Xanax because it borderline cured my stutter, but I just laid in bed for a week and was able to quit. I’m not sure why I ha...

I quit smoking a year ago after smoking daily for about 15 years. I noticed I was getting a lot of anxiety and paranoia which ultimately made my stuttering worse. I just wasn’t enjoying being high any...

Adderall makes me almost fluent. But I'd for sure get addicted if I had a perscription. It might just be a "honeymoon" effect though cause I only take it for party reasons and I take a lot and get an...

I have noticed sometimes adderall helps and sometimes in makes it really bad. Same with caffeine. The only thing that helps almost completely, and then continues to help for about 3 months… is trippin...

Helped you in the short-term? Like your speech improves when you’re high? That’s interesting because my experiences are the exact opposite....

Thanks for the reply, that’s all helpful info. That’s pretty much what I think is happening with me. The introspection especially doesnt make me feel good. Sitting at home thinking about how much my s...

Weed definitely affects my stutter negatively because of the increased introspection, judgement of self and anxiety I get from smoking it. I smoked heavily in my 18-22 years and my speech is a lot be...

I have ADHD and stutter and multiple doctors have told me if I go on ADHD meds my stutter will get worse....

I don’t have anything real profound to say. I was addicted to street Xanax (research benzos) between ages 17 and 20. It pretty much ruined my life at the time. Started dealing drugs and ended up going...

For me personally, it is the other way around. All sedatives and tranquilizers make speech considerably more controlled and fluent whilst stimulants usually exacerbate stuttering. The better question ...

It’s pretty crazy. Like for some people it works and for others it makes it a hell of a lot worse....

A few years ago my psychiatrist suggested that I try Adderall to help with my fluency. It made it soooo much worse. It also made me feel terrible and lose 30lbs. Do not recommend lol....
