Thanks for this. Also to add, she seemed to suggest that if I was sexually abused early teenage years then I should remember it. It would only be amnesia from teenage years if I was threaten with death. I guess she is also implying that pre-teen years you can have amnesia with sexual abuse because I guess you're more vulnerable. Thoughts?[/QUOTE]

No I don't agree with that at all. Amnesia can happen for any traumatic event at any age! Studies have shown this. She needs to do a bit more studying. I always hate it if people criticise my t so sorry if that's true for you too. I think you need someone who specialises in trauma and dissociation. Have a look at the book The Stranger in the Mirror. Also keep believing yourself. Am here for any questions as have been on this road since last year and my memories are very slow at coming back. If I can help in any way I will. But I am only one person experiencing it one way and sure it'll be different for you. Take care.
