Tammy, Just a quick response to your title and your initial post, as time is restricted right now for me, and yet I still wish to offer my thought on your question.

Here goes: You decide what you are or not going to delve further into. Your decision. Final!

I'll add, that from my pers. exper. with multiple trauma, that I (right or wrong), would not forcibly delve into trying to remember whether or not I was additionally traumatized in some possible way.

My experience is that my trauma's have never once truly resolved/healed themselves, or ever dissappeared for any permanent period of time. I trust that wherever I have been traumatized, that it will rear its most painful head and then, and only then, will more be revealed and when timing is right. This has happened time and again, all by itself, and has very sadly, not once ever permanently vanished into thin air.

Another words, I personally would juggle and tackle my present with my past intrusive current memory of trauma, thoughts and further analysis and discussions before I delved into certainly legitimate fears and possibilities, (as I have these too), of what may or may not have occurred; as my pers. experience teaches me more is generally and very likely revealed given time and provided you're analyzing your other traumas.

I pers. would discuss, as well as, do what's next and right directly in front of me and if I have any free-time, I'd practice breaks, some leisure, some rest and while setting-out to discover what on earth is enjoyment.

Though many may know well what enjoyment is, I struggle with this concept and action. I've learned this is not uncommon given certain trauma/abuses.

You do what you decide is best for you, Tammy!

Glad you posted this by the way. Well done.

You're doing great sharing, opening up and it is a pleasure to have become a little bit acquainted with you so far, through the forum and,.....personally I hope you and I come to share some more with one another, to trust and to know each other more as friends.

Sending many (((hugs))) your way. Catch them, please and don't let them pass you by.

Thinking of you Tammy,

Hope
