Same here! I can’t think clearly when i am in a middle of a block, in my case it’s a response to repeated trauma, i am a severe stuterer and i have painful experiences on a daily basis. I know it soun...

I’ve been where you are… sometimes my stutter would be so bad that my facial muscles and eyes would hurt from blinking and tightening the muscles. It is exhausting. Physically and emotionally. One t...

Try this out and tell me. Contract the muscles in your left hand creating as much tension as you can without moving the hand or the fingers themselves. Now release and relax it. Make it lighter than ...

Thank you so much! I agree with you that anticipation can create a problem. Personally, I think that, if we anticipate stuttering, we sometimes stutter and other times do not stutter. Yes indeed, an a...

Just had an incidence of anticipation. I reeled it right back in and didn't stutter. I can do it willingly now. It's not the word you are trying to say that's the problem, because it hasn't been said...

I believe that anticipation, through a relaxation mechanism, counters contraction before there even is any or simultaneous with it. It does so to prevent overcontraction, but ends up nullifying the mu...

For a few months, while blocking, I bit my cheek and got ulcers. I consciously stopped doing this because ulcers suck. Generally try to stop pushing your tongue up against your teeth. This will not h...

I’m curious how those two techniques help for a fear based block? I ask bc I’ve studied the science from the true experts and it suggests the opposite. In fact, by practicing what they suggest, my...
