How I got it recognised as a disability I did it by proving the social/psychological damage it usually entails. I went to therapy for years and a detailed report was enough. Just stuttering alone would not make me eligible but anxiety, depression and how it affects me socially were the defining factors. I live in Spain so it might differ from country to country. Here we got % disability scales, if you get 33% there are certain benefits. Stuttering alone is not even 10%, but chronic anxiety/depression/social damage contributed to the rating. Some of the benefits are: tax relieves for normal companies that hire you, being able to join special job centres where you do menial tasks for the minimum wage and lifelong discounts for bus/train tickets. Thanks to my disability being recognized (and because I know English) I got hired at a big 4 company. They are ok with me communicating just through chat (wfh job) and the kpis are the same as everyone else's. If you need to know anything, ask away.
