Many of us erect these walls to protect ourselves, whether consciously or subconsciously. Our brains are amazing in their ability to block memories. Must we always go charging to tear down those walls, or find the keys that will unlock what’s hidden in our minds? Sometimes, shouldn’t things just stay buried in the past?
I believe that if we are having problems that stem from the past memories it is best to deal with them. Sometimes these problems are so hidden and deep inside us that we need to dig to find them. It just depends on how we are feeling mentally and emotionally.
I always thought that also but after undergoing EMDR therapy to help with my PTSD it felt good to work through past issues so I can concentrate on the now and future. That’s enough stress for now.
Yes! Somethings are better left untouched and I tell my therapist this all the time but he disagrees.
