If you were molested when you were a little kid is it possible that you would block some details out?

is it possible that you would block some of it out and then remember details years later when you're in your 20s? I just remember playing at the park with some kids and this one older boy chased me around, and then I ran behind this building and he was there waiting for me. and not to be graphic but I guess he did somethings (I blocked this part out) but all I could remember was him slapping my butt as I started to run away and I ran home. and then I was hurting for like 2-3 weeks b.c it was hard for me to sit down..i had to sit down slowly because I was in pain. so do you think anything happened or not? I really don't know for sure because I just remembered part of it yesterday but I remember everything else. I actually forgot about this incident for a while and never really thought of it. the entire incident was a passing memory but I did block out a certain part until now..so what do you think I should do? I only met the boy once. I forgot his name and if I ever saw him again I probably wouldn't know who he is

The fact that it was hard to sit for a while might mean he took your virginity or he might have just slapped too hard,I don't know the circumstances so do you know if you still had your hymen after this? I know you just remembered it recently but do you remember having it at all before you lost your virginity if you have already? and I would agree your mind blocked that out its a way for you to deal with hard to come to problems

I think I broke it before that (due to a fall). I am not talking about vaginal rape :( it wasn't the pain of being slapped too hard, I can't really discribe it but it was like hard for me to sit down internally or something..i haven't lost my virginity yet

O ok well I was suggesting since you might have blocked some parts you may not remember vaginal rape but if you don't think so I trust you know better than I do well all I can say really is that you did block out that memory

From 1st to 3rd grade I had a babysitter who was 17-20... she used to: sit on my face, blow me, and once actually rode me.. It was awesome... I had no complaints. Only thing I currently have an issue with is the fact that she had my twin sister and I do stuff together, and to her. My sister and I both understand what happened and it's just.. whatever.

Thats just sick

Crysis I can understand that but still the last part should have stopped you from saying that when the babysitter has you do something incest than she's just a mentally sick person no need for additional comments refuring to how you would have liked it

I just did what she told me. I was 7 years old. Not like I was thinking about the impact it'd have.

I had similar experiences with multiple teenage babysitters.

[Cupcakegurl]

yeah I think I agree with you blocking it out of your memory

[curious71192]

completely a person can block out certain events in there life because they are to traumatizing the mind can block things out to save mental stability

[EddyMetal]

Blocking out memories of traumatizing events is very common, or so I hear.

[oliversamuel]

Yup I've had this happen to me. I was sexually abused as a kid (not by my parents or family, but by babysitters, teachers, and other kids). I made myself forget a lot of it

its a self defense mechanism. a response you automatically use to assure yourself it never happened I call it denial..yes its possible to block it out..yours was so strong it resulted in memory loss...
