Hey Scatman, well i'd at least like to tell you that you're not alone in this. I block a lot too and i dont really stutter like s-s-s-stutter. The best way i've seen to deal with this is to be able to accept the fact that you (we) are a stutterer and to be ok with that. We block so hard because we try so hard NOT to stutter. the harder we try, the worse it is. but it's really hard to just accept it and learn to become ok with stuttering. That is where I believe a good speech therapist/program comes in. It is absolutely vital to try and find someone who understands the issues and knows how to approach it. Otherwise its just a rough journey of trying to figure it out seemingly on our own. If you live in the US, I strongly recommend going to an NSA conference. For some good knowledge/connection, i really recommend the Stuttertalk.com podcast. Peter really gets it and many of the episodes are just absolutely bang on. I listen to it while I work.
