Hi..
 
As many of you here know, I'm not really one for writing on here about whats going on for me! probably not really a good thing to do, but its all I'm used to. I bottle everything up inside and to let it out is just to painful.  I am also a survivor just like all of you and I find things a bit tough sometimes as well.
 
At the moment I am having some pretty nasty  dreams, where I think I'm about 7 or 8 yr old, the things I see in these dreams is making me think that my original memories are not quite right, I beleived the Sexual Abuse started at the age of about 14yr, now I'm not so sure?
In one flashback recently I was wearing a dress that I believe I had when I was about 10yr old? how can that be? It's tearing me apart to think that this could have been happening at such a young age, why can't I remember more? I need to know how old I was when he first started this on me, I Know he was sexually abusing my sister from the age of about 6yr, did he start on me at that age as well?
 
I have just finished things with my original therapist, as I felt she wasn't helping me any, if we touched on a tough subject and I started to get upset she would change the subject like she couldn't handle it? and often make stupid comments like 'are you sure it wasn't a drunken fumble' etc.. I have found someone new nearer to the new house and saw her last week for the first time, I think maybe this time I will actually have someone who is able to handle it, and will get me talking.. I'm not very good at talking about myself, I need a push! hopefully she'll give me that eh!..
 
Sorry to dump all this on you all, but I needed to get it out somehow and at least you can't see me as I write this....
 
Kathy

Kathy,
There are ways of remembering but they can be mentally painfull because of the memories they bring back.
Yes therapy is one way and the best way for you to get the help you need, hypnosis is another way, a bit extreme but it does work.
There is another way and it is as equall;y painful and does work, but see how you get on with your therapist 1st, if its not helping then we can explore the other way.
Its good you have found someone who isnt afraid to let you get upset, sometimes when we get upset we do remember more, and changing the subject the way your former therapist did isnt what was needed at the time,
Anyway, good luck with it all and as Collie said, we are here for you should you need us.

Sue
