Re:How do I recall memories?

I would also like to add, not as information specific to your situation, but generally - that it is not necessary to recall all memories, in order to heal from them.

Sometimes it is useful to work on the feeling of "needing" to remember, so that there is less internal pressure to "know".

Once the "need" to remember is processed, then sometimes it is easier to relax a little more and to work on the material that IS known. As things clear, new memories may or may not surface - if they do, they can be processed as well. If they don't, maybe there is not unknown material, or maybe it has been processed without being recalled, or maybe it is not the right time to "know" it.

It is often enough to simply know that "Bad Stuff" occurred that explains and validates the present day issues that are being struggled with, rather than having a complete list of everything bad that ever happened.

Just my .02 for what it is worth.
