Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Painful negative: memories are never totally gone but can filed away, so to speak, so that they no longer dominate our thoughts and feelings. Sometimes grappling w/the fact that it is an unjust world helps. Sometimes forgiveness of self or others is needed (not condoning things). A mental health professional can help. Please do't rely on meds only. Peace and good health.
