Scientifically speaking, you'll never actually forget what happened it's impossible, but over time you'll learn to over come it and make peace between it... it's impossible to forget, but it's possible to work through it to make it easier

Stand for what you say and ALLOW those that speak around you to continue. Think of it as a filter for those that want to know more

Learning to unassociate things that trigger you. Finding grounding methods.
