Dennis: No problem. I had a fellow survivor tell me in a post that he wishes he had suffered memory lost after he was abused by a priest at Father Judge High School in Northeast Philadelphia. He was anally raped on a routine basis by a priest who had befriended him. He was a gay kid. A gay kid in a Catholic High School back then was at the mercy of all those good Christian boys. The way I responded to him was that he never forgot what happened to him. He knew why he felt the way he did and why he acted the way he did. My life was a complete puzzle. I had no idea why I felt the way I did and why I acted the way I acted. Recovering the memories connected all the dots. I do believe that forgetting what happened is a way of avoiding the pain. I was never asked whether I had been sexually abused. It was not a subject brought up in polite society. But I was in recovery. I had been seeing a therapist for two years. The subject of sexual abuse never came up.We talked a lot about my family.
