My mother attempted to convince me that I was molested by my adoptive father. This started when I was 6. I experienced things like hypnosis to “recover” memories that were fed to the therapists.
I have talked to therapists about this but it’s fucking useless. I don’t know how to deal with two sets of memories and I’m sick of spending $400 on “oh yeah the only thing I know how to do is CBT.”
It sounds like you need to seek out a trauma and abuse specialist.
Because regardless of what actually happened, it was clearly abuse, and it clearly caused significant trauma.
I don’t know what to make of this.
Who are you saying abused you?
First of all, you need to find a therapist that has no connection to your mother. Then you need to explain everything that’s happened, and hopefully they can help you sort out fact from fiction.
I wouldn’t trust any kind of hypnosis, though. That shit is not reliable from a therapy standpoint. You may as well be analyzing your dreams, for all the clarity it will provide.
