Are you a more creative person than logic driven? stutterer here and always struggled with math and science my whole life throughout school however I always growing up I was always on the creative side and ended up in a creative driven field because of it. I wonder if other stutterer's out there are like this as well since research shows that fluent speakers predominantly use the left side of their brain to integrate what they've heard with speech, while people who stutter shift the workload to the brain's right side. This has been shown in many scans with stutters and non stutters. It's said Stutters have "hyperactivity" in the right hemisphere of the brain which is also associated with creativity where as the left hemisphere is associated with logic such as math & science. https://www.livescience.com/g00/15603-stuttering-brain-rewired.html?i10c.encReferrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8%3D
