> I would be very careful with the hypnotherapy thing. There may be good reasons you cannot remember those years, and if you use hypnotherapy to try to remember, you need to be sure the pace will go slow, and t hat the practitioner is highly skilled. Also, there have been cases here in the US where people underwent hypnotherapy, often with "truth serum" type of drugs, where it was found that the hypnotherapy was highly suggestive to the patient, and harmful.
Thanks for your advice. If I do decide to do this, I will do a lot of research first.. and go in as knowledgeable as I possibly can! Definately something I won't jump in to.
> I think it used to be that therapy was thought of as an uncovering process, but I think the emphasis is less on this now, because it isn't always so helpful to force things out.
