Thank you for this, would you please share more resources that point to better strategies? My own strategy has been substitutions - preemptively identifying the "blocking" words and quickly finding some substitutes that I can get away with. Over time, I've obviously polished this mechanism enough to pass off almost 80%(arbitrary, to make a point) of the time without any external manifestation of a struggle. After decades of doing this, I realise that this is not a healthy way to cope at all, but on the plus side, it has significantly enriched my working vocabulary.
