Why are so many of my childhood memories repressed ones of pain and mental anguish?

Why do Nostr users post things that have been making these decades long memories pop up after being hidden for so long?

I do not know if there is any benefit to remembering such painful details of my life. I repressed them for a reason. I am a grown ass man and even I have a hard time handling this shit. Especially when distant memories that are repressed are indistinguishable from long lost dreams. Hard to decipher fact from fiction.

There's a bit of magic in the nostr current I find. Those memories could be appearing now as you are strong enough to process and have compassion for your young child self. Hold him tight then you can move on. I find my child perceptions to be valid for my environment at the time but with the fear and limited understanding of a child. Now, I don't hold onto those perceptions as much.
