It's not the story as much as it's the feelings. Cognitively, I have been able to accept what happened, but my heart won't listen to my brain. When I told the story it was from a distance, now the issues we are addressing are the emotional ones that I have managed to numb for so long. I wish I could control the memories, they are completely overwhelming!
