What about adults who dont stutter? How high is it?...

Just wanted to share that I've noticed a trend of stuttering decreasing with age. I've noticed it mentioned on this sub-reddit, in myself and other famous people such as Bill Withers. In the case of B...

I have largely overcome it. I have never not stuttered. My first words were at aged 3 and from then to up until I graduated from high school, I couldn't string more than a few words together. Gradua...

Stuttering and blocks ever since i remember. Cried myself to sleep many nights. It all started to get better around the age of 26. I havent made any real efforts to improve my speech because i was s...

It depends what you mean by “overcome”. I always seem to go through prolonged phases of improvement and degradation. Overall, I am in a much better position now than anybody could have imagined. I fi...

Has anyone overcome stuttering?

It was a little embarrassing and not what I imagined but I took my time and got all my words out and he was extremely patient with me and let me finish my words so it was a really great experience....

When I met one of my favourite bands I somehow barely stuttered and I was very nervous I stuttered once and he didn’t even hear me but if I met someone else I feel like I would stutter a lot...

Anecdotally, I have the opposite suspicion. I think the 1% figure is an underrepresentation and may only account for people who have sought clinical support for their problem. For instance, one time, ...
