I’m going to assume you come from a culture where it’s taboo for someone like you to acknowledge experiencing fear in a non-dangerous situation. Regardless, you are creating extremely complex workarounds to probably explain *the exact same mechanism as anticipatory fear causing blocks*. Stuttering is a problem that gets worse the harder you put in the wrong effort. So I think these workarounds are making you stutter more. It’s up to you. If your own ideas are not working (you’ve mentioned stuttering on every letter sometimes), I suggest listening Tim Mackesey’s podcast and doing what he suggests. But it’s totally up to you. Do what you want.
