Hi Erica. As replied before: when I hit rock bottom, some people crossed my path and turned me into a somebody and I finally learned to keep my head over the surface. Than someone gave me a broschure from the local group of PWS. PWS??? Are there others??? That litterally changed my life. I learned I was not the only one, that I was ok the way I was and that PWS are great people with great lives. And with help of other people and the self help movement, I got angry! I found out that I had the right to speak. That I had something to give and to tell. That I wasn't my stutter. That I was ok WITH my stuttering as well as without. That the only person who could change my situation was... me!And I have been on every chat group, on every board and a congress junkie ever since. :-) I can highly recommend it. To PWS of all ages, but also to parents, spouses, friends, SLPs researchers, teachers and to all others who have an interest in stuttering. It's a special world with the most wonderful and heart warming people ever, no matter if you stutter or not. Keep talking! Anita
