Thanks. It's extraordinarily rare that I'll talk about the subject because I don't like to think of my childhood & teens. I spent so many years willing myself not to remember them that they are but an evanescent blur to me now even when I try. It's actually quite an interesting experience when some vivid memory will burst into consciousness after not having remembered it since then.

Those three realizations however were so memorable they've always been as crystal clear to me as if they'd happened yesterday. I can picture each one like it's happening right now.

Anyhow, I just went into this because some of the comments above were extremely ignorant and insensitive...

You are not alone. That is exactly my feelings about childhood (including teen years). It's almost as if my childhood happened to a different person. Other than my immediate family, I have had no contact with other people from that part of my life. I try not to think about it and have pretty much put it behind me.
