Psychodynamic tx: Repressed memories are unintentional forgetting of emotionally significant (usually painful) events. But recalling memories is tricky because it involves a reassembling of meanings that are not necessarily based in reality. Nevertheless the meanings (most of which are unconscious) have a profound effect on one's conscious life. To access them, you need find a link - a thing, pic. Or an idea.
