Sweetheart - you will not be able to let go of the past until you have faced it with the loving support of a good counselor (no matter how much you want to let it go).
Here is a book I always recommend when someone has a hard time letting go of the past or of hurtful feelings / wounds.
BOOK: Feelings Buried Alive Never Die, by Karol Truman

BTW - I must have talked about all my issues a million times before they finally started to leave me in PEACE.... venting (talking it thru) is a God given release for all females - it lets us rid our bodies and mind of the evil from with in that haunts, controls us at every corner.
