I struggle with this too. Well, it is getting easier and less of a struggle but still.

I find it hard to explain to people how things affected me so badly and often their response is simply 'it's in the past, you need to move on' which is true but feels insensitive and, well, I ask how? All those memories do not just disappear overnight.

I'm sorry I can't help other than to reassure you you are most definitely not alone. If you find talking it over with someone will help, that is something to try.

Take care. :)

By the side of the river he trotted as one trots, when very small, by the side of a man who holds one spell-bound by exciting stories; and when tired at last, he sat on the bank, while the river still chattered on to him, a babbling procession of the best stories in the world, sent from the heart of the earth to be told at last to the insatiable sea. Wind in the Willows.
