I never, ever, had fun when I stuttered. I did fully recover through psychotherapy when I was 70! My stuttering was emotionally caused and dealing with my abusive childhood gave me fluency. It would have been impossible for me to have made light of the pain, ridicule, and marginalization of my life as a stutterer. (female, began stuttering at age 4-5) Sue
