Just thought I'd share I think it depends on several factors, some of them that just came into my mind: \-Severity (I think it would be somewhat obvious if a person who stutters severely reports more difficulties compared to the milder counterpart) \-Positive/negative attitude ratio (?) Based on my personal experience, since I was able to find a part-time job (during my studies) quite easily, and I even told the interviewer at the end that I stutter, he said he didn't even notice it, and had somewhat of a success during university presentations, I think it gave me a slightly positive outlook, yeah, sure, I've had some downs here and there, but for the most part, it might be that the positive situations outweigh the negative ones, I'm not sure about this actually, this might even be not true Just something that just came to my mind :)
