That's how I thought and felt too,for many years.Every time I started therapy and the past was brought up,I left.I just wanted to work on the here and now.What I didn't realize though,was the past was still in the present,whether I acknowledged or believed it or not.It wasn't until I did actually 'rehash' the past that I became more stable and things started changing for the better.

My point?The past always comes back to bite you in the *** until a person truly works through it.It does make things worse at first,but they do eventually get better.
