Do you experience neck or head pain, if you relax and execute speech movements or initiate articulation? If I move my speech muscles without tension (aka I speak fluently), then I evoke neck or head pain. The more I relax or untense, the more pain I experience. To reduce this pain, I choose to stop articulating (aka I block). So, I always stutter, to reduce this pain. Do you also experience head or neck pain, if you relax and choose to articulate?
