anyone else get this kind of block? This is kind of a pointless post, just curious if anyone else experiences this. Normally a block is like…you’re trying to push a word out and it feels like something is preventing you. But sometimes I get this kind of block where it doesn’t even feel like I’m pushing the word out, rather it just feels like I suddenly don’t even have vocal chords anymore, like nothing is moving at all, or I suddenly forgot how to move the muscles. Kind of like you can’t wiggle your earlobe separately from the rest of the ear because there’s no muscle for it, that’s what it feels like. There’s just NOTHING. HAPPENING. So weird. And no matter what word I try to substitute, it’s the same. Then after a little time goes by, it stops happening and goes back to normal. It’s a bit scary sometimes because it literally feels like my vocal cords have gotten paralyzed and I won’t be able to speak again. Why is stuttering so weird? What is even going on?
