Hate blocks has any managed to beat them I fucking hate blocks, want to ask a stranger for something, the anxiety creeps in , you prepare what you want to say and then boom you block I absolutely hate it , I hate living like this, somedays(most) I hate being me Can someone share some insight on how they got over stuttering (not sure if that's even possible) I just cannot live like this anymore , blocking is not fun at all. I really don't understand people who have "overcome " stuttering to the point that it does not affect them anymore, How the hell do they do it. At the end of the day I ask my fellow Redditors two question "Is fluency an unachievable goal" "Impossible to stop stutter anxiety" Honestly wish I was never born
