Matt, speaking from experience, ignoring issues and repressing them may work short term but are bound to wreak havoc in the long run. My advice: DO NOT ignore what has happened with you and your cousin. You have access to help right now, take advantage of it while you can. You never know, you may repress it now, move on in life, and when it crops up again (and it will, whether you recognize it or not), you may not have access to mental health care, whether though job restrictions, finances, insurance, etc...
Now is your opportunity to work this out. You have someone willing to listen to you and help you. This is rare. Take advantage of it. I know it will be hard to dredge up, but you owe yourself the possibility of being a mentally healthy human being.
