Everyone's preferences are different, but disclosing my stutter is one of the absolute best things I've ever done for myself. I've always worried that people spend more time focusing on how I speak rather than what I'm saying, and telling people I stutter has mitigated that worry SO much. Now they know why I speak differently and that I'm open to talking about it to be an ambassador for PWS--plus, most people are super comforted by someone trusting them with a pretty big vulnerability early on. It encourages everything from leveled-up small talk to forging deeper connections because they feel safer with someone who took a chance on opening up in a big way first.
