  3. Roisin,
    I am completely relate to what you said in this video. I am just starting to try and comes to terms that I am a pws and I always will be. For half of my life I thought that I will not stutter my whole life, and that is why I went through the Hollins program in Roanoke, Virgina. Thank you for making this video.

  5. hiiiiiii! you are so gergous, i’d marry you, I wouldn’t care about your stuttering problem, i’d be there with you to help you. People who like to judge should f***** off. We should respect people for their ideas, not for the way they speak. People who like to criticize other people have many complex and show how ignorant they are, i was a stutter and i use many techniques to avoid stuttering and now that i don’t stutter people started showing respect. The people that make more fun of stutters are the secretaries.
