Does anybody else not remember bad memories related to their stutter from when they were younger?

Does anybody else not remember bad memories related to their stutter from when they were younger? I have a stutter since I'm like 5-6 but honestly I barely remember any bad situations like someone making fun of me (and it for sure happened). It's like if my brain flushes out bad memories to protect me? When I took edibles recently, out of nowhere I reminded myself some really sad situations (my then best friend and his older sister mimicking the way I talk, some kid saying that I'm unable to talk and many more). It was buried so deep in my memory but now I remember it vividly. When I think of my 10yo self, I don't remeber anything related to my speech (only a couple single situations). It's like if that part of me was never there.
