What does it mean if one has repressed memories?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Blocking: The theory is that due to some trauma experienced in the past, the mind is unable to cope with it. Consequently, the mind blocks or supresses those memories from awareness. Some therapists believe it is essential to uncover these memories to process them. By doing so, they believe the root of all your problems will be revealed and working thru these will cure your psychological problems. Others be.
