I totally agree. I would consider stuttering as a disability due to the fact that it does effect every aspect of your life. The biggest issue I find is that we look normal so people assume we can perform like others who are fluent speakers. If they could experience what we are experiencing in our lives they would have a different perspective. I am a speech pathologist and I would definitely state that stuttering is definitely a disability.
