I'm glad you have found some of our struggles helpful in your own struggle. I think some of us go into therapy with a lot of memories ready to burst out, some have a "feeling" that something occurred, and some, like me, did not know, and are totally shocked to have memories suddenly burst out of seemingly nowhere. I suppose it depends on when the abuse or other trauma occurred- in early or later childhood,- and how effectively our brains have sealed it off from other accessible childhood memories. I am very wary of false memories, also, but, the way they have come up, and the tremendous storms of emotion which have accompanied them, have convinced me that they are real.
