Hey. PWS hide their stutter very well. Speacilly one´s that has a mild type of stuttering. Like myself. I use a lot of avoidance behaviour so people don´t know I stutter. When I tell some people that I have a stutter problem they don´t believe me. They always tell me: "Maybe when you get nervous but you are not a stutter" The thing is that **I know** I´m a stutter because I can sense the feeling and anticipation of stuttering all the time. I know when I´m about to stutter before I stutter. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don´t. When I feel the emotion with such intensity I just don´t talk so I can hide my big secret and avoid the shame and embarrasment. People like me can be outside that 1% while I´m a defininetly a stutter. It may be **more** than 1%. It´s very hard to estimate because stammering is a condition that the person who has it tries to hide it.
