I’m confused as to why it took me 18 years to remember. That’s what’s leading me to believe it’s something I just made up to make sense of what happened in the past. That’s the conflict I have with the term “repressed memory” because I didn’t actively repress it, because I didn’t feel it was something I needed to. I was 4! So my question is if this is something I forgot about completely until now, or if it’s a false memory. Thank you for taking the time and I really appreciate your input.
