Hey.. I have stuffed things my whole life.. I am 43 now and still avoiding a great deal although i have come a long way.

When our minds block something too painful to deal with .. like someone we love so dearly hurting us so badly... it can be very painful when it starts to come to the surface..and its natural to avoid it if we can.

stay with it.. let the memories come.. be patient with yourself... don't try to make it all make sense .. it wil fall into place soon enough.. when you are able to handle the truth.Your fears and thoughts are not the way they are by accident. something happened.

Stay strong... there is healing. .and I have to disagree.. if a person is molested just once.. it changes who you are.. it does affect you somehow... I think you should investigate that incident so you can heal from that too... when the time is right.
