I was completely fluent until I developed PTSD in my later teen years. It was mild at first but eventually got worse. At 27 I would say I have a mild to moderate stutter depending on how stressed out ...

Idk. I’ve never found a stutter that big of a deal. My daughters ex has the worst stutter I’ve ever heard. Other than hoping for it to improve for his own well being it just kinda blended into the fab...

Been to speech therapy in school for about 10 years and never once had a diagnosis. Even then I was saying the people who haven't been seen by a professional/only compare their stutter to themselves a...

If you've ever had speech therapy usually they'll give you some diagnosis with the severity of your stutter included. And yeah it's not arbitrary; it's about the frequency of stuttering and how long i...

Nominally there are - they count % of syllables stuttered on....

I’ve made posts like this before and I 100% believe we as stutterers or someone in the SLP/medical diagnosing field should come up with differences between degrees of stuttering. Instead of being comp...

Like you, my stutter is relentless. I too don’t feel parity with most stutterers as most don’t stutter to such a considerable degree. As you know, stuttering is a spectrum with varying levels of sev...

Same. There's so much on here about people hiding their stutter, choosing whether or not to disclose, working in call centers etc. My stutter is so bad the only way to hide it is by not speaking. I ca...

I do. I'm trying to reduce it. Although no doubt I'll just replace it with some other "tick" which is how it started anyway. It often causes me mischief as I become literally blind to the world arou...

Theirs more likely gonna be less severe stutters then moderate stutterers. That’s all your seeing. And if I’m honest I can hide my severe stutter, I just won’t talk. I wouldn’t worry so much....

I feel isolated even from the stuttering community

I feel isolated even from the stuttering community I want to preface this by saying I don't want to put down, shame, or denigrate anyone or their struggles. I just want to vent a little. I have a mod...

I always thought of my stutter as moderate, but after participating in a study last year, I was advised that is quite mild. I’ve had many of girlfriends, but I’m also 6’4”, played football and wrestl...

I think this is at best a privilege of a mild stutter. My stutter is pretty severe at times, even lovely people fondnme uncomfortable to talk to and avoid conversing with me (because they don't want ...

There's no option for "completely obliterates my stutter and gives me ultra fluency" lmao...

I have a mild stutter so I would keep it....

I wasn't really going for something VERY realistic. I was mainly focused on the people who would still choose to get rid of their stutter even if they're getting paid. I just picked an amount that pop...

1000$ absolutely id keep it. If it was something more reasonable like 10 then it would be a debate even though I’d be making 100’s of dollars a day...

You really should have said something realistic… Like, $0.005 every stutter. I know, at least for myself, even that would really begin to add up… But $1000? Forget about it. I’m intentionally stutt...

Yeah exactly it’s just worse for us who stutter unfortunately :(...

I can also respect that. My stutter is bad but I can lead a life that is not terrible. It breaks my heart that there are stutterers that have it way worse than me :(...
