Thank you for the tips! I definitely have speech block caused by anxiety, not so much a repetitive stutter. I also think the problem I have with answering the phone is caused by my childhood experiences with phone calls from a certain person, and me overthinking myself into gaining the block after I left a job where I had no problem answering phone calls and communicating. >Learn to stop . Simply stop. Believe it or not, it's pretty hard to stop. What do you mean by stop? Do you mean something like catching yourself being anxious or in the block? Again thank you for your post. I will try the tips you've given :)
