Given what my mother told me, my actual abuse was worse than what I remember, so in some ways, the impact should be greater. It amazes me that I have absolutely no recall of certain things. And it worries me to think I may start to recall such things. Most books that I read regarding memories lead me to believe that I *will* remember more at some point. <br /><br />Erin -<br />Thanks for stopping by. I will check out your blog. I have been considering who of my long term friends I might tell (poor sentence construction). It's an odd feeling - wondering what the response will be - Pity? And is that so bad?<br /><br />OLJonelongjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07597384019046282972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4827918606832091151.post-87595828688426416332009-11-16T21:50:22.454-08:002009-11-16T21:50:22.454-08:00Good for you for opening up about this.

Now I will become all analytical and try to figure out 1) why different folks are affected in different ways by similar abuse, and 2) what is likely in store for me in the future as far as memories surfacing.<br /><br />OLJonelongjourneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07597384019046282972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4827918606832091151.post-77122073660029222202009-11-05T07:20:44.952-08:002009-11-05T07:20:44.952-08:00I'm glad you are doing ok too, and am amazed a...I'm glad you are doing ok too, and am amazed at your bravery and honesty in confronting this.
