Hey board,

Interesting to note that I went on ginkgo biloba and Piracetam about 6 months ago to see how it could help my speech problems. Now, I don't stutter, but I do tend to misspronounce words frequently, have a hard time starting sentences just getting the words out, getting speech to flow out, and can slur my words. This is actually genetic because I see my dad do the same exact things constantly. When it happens, it makes me come across as this insecure guy, know what I mean? So, I went on Piracetam + ginkgo and they both took away this about 80% of the time, but not to the point where I was able to flow out of my head when I am just ON and in the zone. I stopped taking Piracetam + ginkgo because classes are over and the speech problems are coming out.

I know that most of your speech production comes from Broca's area in the frontal lobe of the brain.

My question is, are there any nootropics that specifically help speech production, moreso than piracetam? I'm open to all suggestions.

Thanks

Piracetam at the right dose (usually around 4.8-9.6 grams daily) can be a very helpful treatment in various speech and learning disorders. Pyritinol and L-Huperzine A has had some success as well.

I have similar problems with speech, notably with word recall.

From my very limited reading on the matter (I'm still new to the 'noo), I've read Pircetam gives the user a greater level of fluency and confidence.


I'd love to hear someone's experience/knowledge on the matter.




Thanks in advance
