It seems that the theme of what causes blocks is a pretty common theme. Kind of a self perpetuating cycle of fear/panic leading to block or stutters which leads to more fear of blocks and stutters and so on and so forth. So like if we understand that as a source and still can't "fix it" what else is there to do? I am always curious about physiological reasons for why we stutter. I wonder if there is something about us that makes us more prone to it? Maybe some type of neurological trait? I have a hand tremor and anxiety as well. Is it just over excitable nervous system? Or is it purely psychologically driven?
