Let me start by saying that I truly enjoyed reading about your life experiences, the ups and downs, as a PWS. You are so fortunate to have developed a large support network. As a graduate student, I have only just begun to learn about the field of stuttering and I have yet to have a therapy session with a person who stutters. You mentioned that you use various techniques such as light touches and easy onsets in order to avoid stuttering. As a student I have been introduced to many techniques and I wonder have you ever tried any other "techniques" that those mentioned in your article? If so, which ones and why do you think that they didn't work for you?
