repressed memories?

This is something I've been worrying about for a long time. I often get these thoughts - sort of like thought flashbacks. There's something else I want to add to this but I can't put down the words here. If something had happened it would make a lot of things make sense but I have no memory of anything, just these feelings and thoughts. I can't think when it could have happened. I need someone to tell me to stop worrying and nothing happened.

EDIT: Change that, I can think exactly where and when it would've been if it did happen.

*cuddles tight* I repressed being raped for over four years. So it's possible, I think it's possible you may be repressing something. But then again I'm no expert. I know there's particular event you don't like talking about, could you dicuss this with someone and maybe talk about the fact you feel like you're repressing something, have thoughts/feelings?

It is possible and I think you need to talk to someone about this so they can help you figure out if anything did happen or not. Sometimes just talking about it can help you remember it but you have to be careful to make sure its not your mind jumping to conclusions about things because you need answers.
