Exactly how does healing take place 40 years later? How is talking to my therapist about this going to help at all? I wish I had never brought this up to her......

One thing I have definitely found is that there is a lot of information on the internet, but very little wisdom. I think you are correct to put this research aside.
So.... how does healing take place 40 years later. I think, as adults, there has to be a point at which therapy becomes less about the information itself and more about what
we decide to do with that information. Perhaps you need to grieve what happened to you for awhile.
Using that information to understand yourself and your decisions, defenses etc... and allowing yourself to change can be really lead to a better, more authentic, fulfilling life.
