How do you guys deal with out of control stuttering There are certain days or weeks where my stuttering get really severe , I stutter more than usual . My blocks lasts forever , I'm stuck in the words , feeling hopeless that they would ever come out , unlike somedays where I have these mini blocks which take a Max of 3-4secs to come out . During such days , I get extremely frustrated. I tend to do things to keep my self distracted , like watching tv , playing games endlessly. I all of sudden go back into my shell and avoid all kinds of social interactions if possible. Sometimes I can't get out of this cycle . It just snowballs
