Thank you so much for your comments. I love hearing from other people who stutter...people who know EXACTLY what it feels like to be in those agonizing situations. To answer your question...when I am talking to somebody and I block (particularly if the person does not know that I stutter), I feel a wide range of emotions: Fear, Worry, Concern, Anxiety, Embarrassment, etc. etc. I'm getting better at being "in the moment of the block" and not getting (too) overwhelmed by it, but that's hard and it takes time and patience to reach that level of acceptance.
