From Repetitions to Severe Blocks at 14: Is there a hidden link?

From Repetitions to Severe Blocks at 14: Is there a hidden link? Hi everyone, I've had a mild stutter (repetitions) since childhood that didn't really affect me. But at age 14, it suddenly transformed into severe "blocks" that changed my life. I've noticed a pattern in a few cases, including mine: this shift happened exactly when I started struggling with porn and masturbation. Do hormones or masturbation play role in this? (I don't mean that masturbation or pornography are direct causes, but I'm asking because this drastic change happened exactly when I started them). Would love to hear your thoughts
