# Birkhot hashachar should be recited individually, so even if somebody makes the berachot aloud, one should say "amen" and have in mind to not be yotze through him. <ref> Shulchan Aruch 6:4, Aruch Hashulchan 6:13 </ref>

# Even though the common practice is to say all of Birchot HaShachar at once, since they were not instituted by Chazal with this in mind, they are not considered a series of Brachot. Therefore, one may not answer Amen to his last Bracha. Though Birchot HaTorah were instituted together, one may be halachically mafsik in between, so they’re not considered a series.<ref>Birkat Hashem vol. 1 6:17-18 based on Brachot 60b and Tur-Beit Yosef OC 46, See [[Answering_Amen_to_Your_Own_Bracha]]</ref>
