will it prevent her from believing me?

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post"> Let me address this? Most therapists know that memories are not stored totally correctly, that whatever you are remembering, or trying to block, is affecting you is evidence enough. SOME thing is causing you to feel numb, right? What's not to believe?

Please don't feel as though you need to work on therapy issues outside of the therapy session. In this case, slower is faster. If you continue to have flashbacks and go numb more often, then you might need to slow down in session.

A good thing is that you probably won't have to go through each and every traumatic experience. Once the brain learns how to correctly "file" a trauma, it will then begin to file all similar ones.

Take care.
