I mean when you think of saying a sentence, without actually saying it out loud.
I used to block in my mind pretty hard. What worked for me as a distraction was grinding my teeth while thinking, one grind per syllable or two.
The speech therapy program I've been to has helped me a lot with this. When I imagine myself using the new way of speaking, I "think" fluently. I'm also trying to kick the habit of thinking in words and think non-verbally instead, but it's not easy.
