The other day I remembered something I had totally forgotten. Or maybe not. When I was about 7 to 9 years old there was this family friends son. I think he is about 6 years older than me. I am a woman now but I have always had an interest for games and such. He liked to play WoW. When we visited them I wanted to watch him play. In the start there where no problems with it, but suddenly I had to let him to things before I would be allowed to watch him play. The details are fussy, but when I think about it, it makes my stomach churn. I remember telling my mother about it, but I am not sure how much I told her. I have this memory of standing on the stairs with my mom and the guy, maybe his parents, and me getting told that I am not allowed to hang out with him anymore. I have suppressed this memory for so long. I am 25 now. When it suddenly popped up in my mind I just started to cry.

I'm sorry that you had to relive those memories again. Our brains do amazing things to help protect us, even going so far as to suppress the traumatic moments altogether. I'm proud of you for reaching out to verbalize your struggles, and being willing to let someone (even an anonymous reader) hear about your story. I hope that someday you will be able to move on from those troubling times and live a good life without worry for it. Have you considered talking to someone in confidence about the situation? I don't even mean a professional, but just a confidant who will listen and let you get everything off of your chest.
