>Could you elaborate? I completely agree that people who stutter choose to force locking the cords (compulsion / primary behavior) as shown in [diagram 1](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FTwnR-LE...

I think I know what’s happening. When I block, I can’t do ANYTHING else. Driving while blocking is interesting. I basically can’t get through a block because I have to focus on driving. Blocking takes...
