Block stutter Just wondering if anyone else has this problem I’ll try and make it quick I’m nearly 19 and have had a block stutter since I was about 11/12, all through primary school I had no problem and was one of the most out going talkative kid, but when I joined my new school it felt like it just came out of nowhere and all of a sudden I couldn’t speak, it was really bad for about 2/3 years and absolutely killed my self confidence. In the last 3 ish years it’s definitely gotten better since having a girlfriend also I find speaking to her I am almost completely fine, however when it comes to things like ordering a drink in a pub, going through a drive through or having longer conversations with people I mentally prepare myself that I can’t say a certain word before I’ve even said it, and from there that’s it there is no way around it almost like I build up so much pressure in my head I overthink it, then I just end up avoiding the situation on a whole or looking like a weirdo who can’t speak. Sorry if it’s abit much but just wanna see if anyone else has a similar problem and can give me some advice on how to overcome it fully
