Should I just talk and ignore my blocks So I block stutter and before I talk I’m always thinking about not stuttering and while I talk it’s the same thing. Should I just talk without worrying Bc if stuttering is mental if I don’t acknowledge it do you think it’ll go away? Ik how bad that’ll be for me at first Bc seriously I can’t say 3 words without stuttering if I don’t think about it but over time think it’ll go away? Did this ever happen to someone?
