In "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" The only time when Billy doesn't stutter is when he is confident. He starts stuttering again when he's asked about what's his mother going to think about what he's...

Not at all! The opposite. Social anxiety makes me drowsy if anything. :) I guess Xanax would be best for most people but Xanax increases my stutter....
