Sometimes that can cause what is called flooding where someone is suddenly overwhelmed with these early life experiences they may not have processed. Feeling these are not going to hurt you, they are things you need to work through instead of run from. It can feel confusing, it's important to be patient with yourself when you experience this.
I'm sorry it takes me a bit to respond. I try to stay busy and not let my mind wonder too much. I find that it helps staying busy so I don't think too many bad thoughts. I had an episode a couple days ago with a fit of jealousy after letting my mind wander too much.

I do not struggle with alcohol. I may have a drink here and there to take the edge off but no more then 2 at a time and no more then 2 times a week. Cigarettes are my addiction.
