I can relate to exactly what you're feeling, because I am feeling it right now as well. I have a "memory" of something that happened in my childhood (SA), but I am wondering if it really happened or not - or if it was just conjured up in my own mind. I am asking my T that exact question - how do you know if the memory is real or not?

Regardless of whether or not it actually happened, if you are thinking it and questioning it - it is real in some way to you...whether it happened or not. I hope that makes sense.
