Study: Psychedelics Could Relieve Stuttering

Psychedelics may lessen anxiety in people who stutter.

Research suggests that psychedelics, including LSD and psilocybin mushrooms, could potentially offer a new approach to addressing developmental stuttering. The substances may correct the neurological imbalances associated with difficulties in speech control, the study’s authors say. They note that social anxiety is often present among people who stammer and that psychedelics can help alleviate anxiety, providing potential relief for stuttering.
