Another thought - I noticed that when I got mad, I got fluent. I think it’s partially bc the physical act of almost-yelling automatically overrides the block mechanism. .After a while, I think that i was subconsciously getting mad as a way to speak fluently, if that makes sense. As soon as I learned how to speak mostly fluently, I rarely get mad. Just last week, I felt like my sister blew off some bad medical news I just got. I called our parents who gave me a good reinterpretation, and I was immediately relieved, and not mad. But, bc they are used to me being mad, but they still kept telling me not to be mad at her. It’s a relief to be able to talk without getting mad, but I sadly wonder if other PWS go through the same thing.
