Effect of Omega-3 fatty acids

I was taking 2 capsules of mega-3 from Dr Reddy's Laboratories (Each softgel capsule contains Eicasopentaenoic acid - 180 mg and Docosahexaenoic acid - 120 mg) in the night after dinner. It used to give somewhat better sleep in the night than ashwagandha. The next morning, I had stuttering issues such as repetition of words, smaller vocal blocks and stuttering on certain words and a bit anxious. When I skipped the dose one night, the stuttering was markedly less next day with less repetition of words and less vocal blocks. It appears that omega-3 fatty acids increase dopamine in the speech circuit area. Apart from stuttering effects, it improved the mood and motivation a little.
