This can be a very divisive topic for survivors

One of the ways that our mind protects us when we experience trauma is to repress the experience

This is helpful to us at the time of trauma but even though the memory is hidden the trauma still affects us

If you have symptoms of trauma without any explanation for these symptoms it can be because the memories have been repressed

Sometimes these memories don't come to the surface until something reminds of us of the trauma later in life

If you are experiencing symptoms of trauma that are affecting you without any obvious explanations it could be because of repressed memories

There are ways to uncover these memories that will help you to understand and recover from this

It is important to find the root issues of your coping disorders rather than just treating them because your mind will often just find other methods to cope until you actually get to the actual trauma that you are hiding from
