Yes that can happen, but if you notice, it has a time line to it. I struggled with that alot myself, and when things came foward, I had to be patient. I found that as I talked about it, also realized these memories and emotions are not in the now, they got less and less powerful. It just takes time to walk through it all in therapy. I know it is a challenge though, but know this will challenge you less and less with time. I know myself sometimes something will trigger me and I find myself compelled to respond, it could be anger or just a strong need to speak out. I aways find that it is only "after" that I can slowly put it all together and see "why" it happened. So, be patient with this healing process. I know it is frustrating at times, so vent here if you need to. Members are kind and understand the challenge of it, but many have made a lot of gains on it so you will be encouraged here.
