It was intersting to learn that PWS can experience feelings similar to individuals with PTSD. It makes sense because some PWS see stuttering as traumatic and the fear of stuttering is intense. I have heard here and there about individuals who have developed stuttering after the occurance of a traumatic event. Is there any evidence or truth to this speculation? If so, are individuals who develop stuttering secondary to trauma people who may have been at risk for stuttering already? I just wanted to get some input from others.
