  10. Welcome @confusedbreadmaker. I'm sorry for the trauma you've experienced, but I'm glad you found this site and decided to join. I'm happy to hear that you are seeing a therapist and talking through things with them. Trauma memories can be very confusing because our brains don't always know how to handle those situations. They try to keep us safe and that can mean that memories can get locked away and reappear years later. Please know that you are not crazy, and that many trauma survivors go through a similar process. You are welcome to post on the site whenever you feel comfortable. Reading other posts may also help you identify and validate your feelings. We are all here to support each other.
