Where My Memories End-- Anyone Else?

[anthony]

Your only referencing a part of a memory, not what that document is citing in relation to suddenly recalling an entire memory. Difference between the two.

Therapy is meant to piece together existing memories... but you already have them, prior to therapy, and you are only putting pieces together within therapy. Huge difference.

AI. Just checking. :)

I had that experience. Over time I have found that very vivid memories come back to me, it seems, when my brain is able to deal with it. perhaps that sounds strange but I believe that I had sort of stepped out myself when it happened and that as I heal more is revealed...

Tosh, if you don't mind my asking, what kind of therapy do you do? I never knew there were so many kinds until this forum, and now I'm looking into different methods.

Maybe I will ask next time I go. I go to a therapist who has lots of PTSD experience and runs a DV group. We talk and basically she gives me "tools" that I can use agianst my symptoms. Sometimes it helps alot, sometimes it dosen't, but I will try anything in order to get better.

I havent read all the comments but I can confirm this, when I'm in a session and I have to think back, it takes a while and because its quiet and you dont have any pressure you actually start to remember things.
