I'm also interested, I'm really worried. My daughter is 7 years old. It started around age five after a scare. We saw a bunch of neurologists. One prescribed Atarax and Phenibut, but it only made things worse. It was a nightmare.

Svetlana Nootropics also made things worse for me, causing nightmares and overstimulation. Maybe magnesium? For 2 months, things were improving, and then suddenly her speech worsened. I'm losing hope and don't know where to turn or what to do. Currently, I'm alternating between home remedies, vitamin D, dicetel, vitamin B, etc., swimming, speech therapy, procedures every 3-4 months, and singing lessons. She starts school in a year.

A little less than a year ago, he started stuttering, a month before turning five. He stuttered very badly through late fall and winter; it was a severe tonic-clonic form. We changed medications and neurologists, but the main ones were Phenibut and Midocalm in different dosages. We were in day hospital twice. The second time, the medications didn't agree with him, and in addition to stuttering, he completely refused to eat, had vomiting from hunger, and other unpleasantries. There wasn't much point in the treatment; sometimes it got a little better, then everything returned. At the beginning of this summer, I gradually stopped all medications. I gave him a break from kindergarten; first, we didn't go for a month, then I often gave him Thursdays and Fridays off. Now I can say his speech is clear, there's no stuttering. I'm not celebrating too early because I understand there might be a setback. However, the logoneurosis hasn't completely passed; yes, it's become weaker and changed. Now he has minor motor tics when he's anxious, bites his lower lip before speaking, and sometimes when he's very worried, he breathes quickly and deeply at the beginning of a phrase, then speaks. There's still a lot of work to do. I believe we'll be back to normal by school.

I've done a lot of self-reflection, examining my own behavior. I watched other parents whose children had stuttering. I realized what I was doing wrong in parenting. And of course, it's a certain type of nervous system in the child; they are prone to neuroses, more anxious and sensitive.
