Why You Keep Seeing the Past in Every New Person You MeetSomeone asked how to stop comparing new people to people from their past.
Here is the real answer. They did not traumatize you. They impacted you. Your trauma is based on one thing. What your brain took in and internalized and processed. Other people can have the exact same experience and act completely differently. Why? Because they internalized it differently. Your brain created your mom inside your head. It created your dad. It created the abuser. And because your brain took it in and you remember it, you feel it as if it is happening right now. You are the movie director of your own memories. You are all the actors. And every time you remember something that hurt you, you are replaying it. You are pressing the button. Not intentionally. The brain is designed for survival. It captured the world you came from, organized it, and now it takes that world everywhere it goes and makes everything fit the way it always saw things. When you go and change what happened inside your mind, it does not let anyone off the hook. It does not affect them at all. It affects you. Some people say if I change the memory they get away scot-free. And I ask them: they have been dead for 20 years. Why are you still trying to beat a dead horse? You are stuck on a rerun. And you are the one pushing the replay button over and over again. If you are ready to stop replaying it, I work with people privately. A session with me goes directly to the memories that are running the show.
