I'm 41 and and healthcare IT contractor, which means typically interviews somewhere 1-2 times a year/travel/meeting new clients. I still stutter but, like most, not quite as bad as it was in my teens/...

Mine is mild too but it rules my life…I wish I would just forget about it. Mess up that’s ok...

That 1 percent thing is such a load of bullshit, it kinda just minimizes our speech disorder like, “it’s not so bad lots of people have it.” It’s so vague as well, it should refer to only adults who c...

mate where the fuck are they? i feel like i am the only who stutters...

Pretty much cap, around 0.7% of the world population stutter or stuttered....

I’ve worked in a pub the last three months and I’ve talked to probably hundreds of people while there and I haven’t met a single customer with a stutter, or at least a noticeable one which is weird if...

I've me two people that stutter (apart from like stuttering groups). It is rare. 1% seems roughly correct though, if you think about it. You also have to distinguish mild stutters from severe ones. T...

This topic has come up in the past. Is there a way to flair the level of fluency people have? It’s is a tremendously different experience to live with a mild situation stutter versus someone with seve...

Yeah I was the only kid who stuttered in my school....

I've met a decent amount of them actually. 1 percent may be a tad high but if you listen to people talk closely you can tell they have a stutter even if they don't outright stutter. For example, prete...

5% of kids stutter, 4/5 resolve spontaneously. Thus, the approx. 1% figure....

I wonder if they just survey random people and that’s how they came up with this ridiculous percentage. It’s kinda like when you stutter and someone says they stutter too sometimes when they clearly...

I remember reading only 5 percent of children that stutter keep it into adulthood. If that’s true, the percentage of adults that stutter should be .03% (not sure if I did the math correctly) of adults...

Yeah, many people i meet including friends never heard anyone else stutter other than me. And then they say 1 in a 100 people stutter. I think this just really isn't the case. I live in a town with 70...

Exactly, yes there are some people who conceal it but honestly if the numbers were this high we would be bound to run into each other much more often than we currently do regardless of people conceali...

I think you are being oversensitive. You do realise that some people are never bothered by this condition and never seek treament? Ok, you may call those people lucky that they have a mild version of ...

Yeah, whoops, I guess I'm not allowed to have a different opinion about it. And being a victim doesn't help either. I wouldn't ever pity anyone whose stutter is very severe. In fact, I do have a cours...

Childhood stuttering is about 5%, with persistent stuttering ranging from .7% to 1% depending on the study....
