We can also go through different eras of stuttering. Right now I'm quite fluent. A year ago I was stuttering a ton...
Yeah thanks for bringing this up. I definitely have been having similar thoughts, but I have no clue how it would work. How do you define severe? It’s so subjective… But it can be really frustrating t...
I feel like there needs to be a "Sister-sub " for severe stuttering.
I feel like there needs to be a "Sister-sub " for severe stuttering. Some people have literally 2 second long repetitions, while others have over 30 second blocks. Those are 2 completely different w...
I have a not severe (as you described) but also not a mild stutter. It's more in the middle and can vary from day to day and hour to hour, minute to minute ect ect. I have blocks on nearly every sound...
I’m not an expert—I’ve just talked about stuttering with some speech pathologists as a person who stutters. Stuttering severity is generally determined by percentage of syllables stuttered on, 3-4% be...
It’s actually very severe, sometimes I can’t finish my sentence and sometimes the doctors just skip me like I am invisible 🫥 But I talked about it with head of department and he was very supportive, ...
There is 'stuttering severity' scale which measures the percentage of syllables stuttered if you want an objective measure of outward stuttering. However it doesn't take into account a lot of other ...
I don’t know an actual metric for this. However, I personally consider a stutter that can’t be ‘hidden’ to be severe. Like if its obvious to most people that you stutter then I consider it severe. I t...
I disagree. You are forgetting that some of us quite literally CANNOT speak. As a severe stutterer, I consider mine severe because I block on at least 75% of the words I say and each block lasts betwe...

How severe is your stutter? I’ve been thinking about medschool & studying pharmacy now. Mine could be worse & i cover it pretty well, but i have bad days. I do stutter usually in every sentence :D...
I feel so heard right now 😭 I’m in the same exact boat, I block on almost every word I say and the blocks last between 10-30 seconds. Getting a full sentence out fluently is AMAZING for me. I feel...
Yeah, it’s like a punch in the gut when you’re in a stuttering space but most of the people there have significantly less severe stutters than you…. Especially when someone with a really mild stutter ...
Acceptance of stuttering is what worked for me. I still stutter quite a bit, but it reduced *significantly* when i decided to chill TF out. Well, it took some work to figure out *how* to chill out, bu...
I only stuttered in my 20s and I can’t think of a single time an adult ever mocked me. Not once. Granted, mine was a speech block (not a typical stammer), but still… most adults are mature enough to k...
It gets better as you (and the people around you) age and mature. College and my adult life I can many count one one hand the number of times I’ve been mocked. Adults don’t care about your stutter and...
