In reply to nobody. Dear nobody, You are somebody, you're you, you are important. I know you're hurting, we all are in our own ways. You made the first step in healing yourself just by telling your story. I'm proud of you for taking that step. Just know that there are people out here in internet land that care about you. Hang in there, you are worth it.

Hi, this resonates with me. Most of my abusive childhood has been repressed by my brain and I’ve really struggled with emotions and attachments because I just don’t have the conscious memories but do have the unconscious triggers. I notice that my asthma gets very uncontrollable the more stressed or depressed I am.

Have very little childhood memories &
as a child excelled in school & sports w/no recognition of those achievements & as adult found myself in stage 4 cancer b/c of how ignored all signs-really feel my childhood played an important fact in that

In reply to Chris. A lot of CEN people say this. I think it's because emotion is the anchor for memories. If emotion is banned or ignored, your memories are not anchored. I hope this makes sense.

I don’t remember much of my childhood. Some key moments have survived, but that’s it. So what does that mean?

I’ve learned the hard way that CEN has caused me to neglect my own self & my own Health. I neglected my body’s need for a mammogram and let a lump in my breast progress to Stage 2 cancer. If I had known that I deserve & need routine health care, I could have spared myself surgery, chemo, & radiation. I now know that I am allowed to take care of my own health!
