I do think im smarter than the people I work with. I dont know if that makes me smart, though. Lol...

There’s no such study that supports this. Just cope from pws....

I don't think smarter necessarily. More patient, likely. Agree about the comment on vocabularies - perhaps better at writing and linguistics than the average person. But I don't think I'm smarter lol ...

I think just a fast brain maybe...

I don't know about this - I'd assume ppl who stutter have a range of intelligences like any other population. No impairment is magically going to make anyone more intelligent across the board than any...

I am smarter than everyone ever. /s Acknowledging we know nothing is the greatest gateway to wisdom....

No correlation, at the scale of all people who stutter vs all people who don't. But people believe in stereotypes and so make assumptions one way or the other. Hollywood actually seems to like to show...

I'm a walking thesaurus. I have used my ability to think deeply about ideas and words to leverage myself into a well paying job as a communicator and writer. I'd say I'm rarely the smartest person in ...

I consider myself a fairly intelligent person, but when it is time to articulate that intelligence, only about 10-20% of it comes out and the rest just sits deep inside not being able to come out or c...

I can’t confirm that this is for all of us but for me, this is absolutely true....

Actual Therapy (with a psychotherapist) ended up indirectly helped my speech much more than a speech therapist but that’s just my experience....

"Smart" isn't really a good word to describe different intelligences. Some people thrive in topics and fields where others simply can't. Some people understand things far quicker than others and don't...

Less intelligent at first impressions, for sure. But perhaps more “book smart” beyond that....

I mean if anything, the stutter presents us as less intelligent, less confident....

I think we spend more time in our own heads, which makes us more reflective. We also have better vocabularies due to word avoidance. Perhaps not “smarter” but we have traits that would present as such...

I feel so but cant make use of it...

You have to understand that a lot of life is full of screening people. Not everyone you want to be around you. Just think of anyone that would do that as someone you certainly don't want to spend any ...

Is it true that people that stutter are generally smarter than the average population? I definitely have ADHD and think way more and deeply about things than most people I encounter. My thoughts are so much faster than my ability to speak them. I wonder if this is common.
