Rape Counseling/rape memory?

Question
I do hope I'm not bothering you and I aplogize if I am. See for the past few weeks both in my dreams and while I'm awake I start seeing myself as a five year old getting gang raped by my friends older brother and his friend. The trouble is I don't remember this happening if it did. At first I shook it off but then I confronted my parents about it and they got this shocked expression and refused to say anything. I am looking for any advice that you can please give.

Answer
Respected Alex,

Greetings!

First and foremost I  wish to say  to you that you are not bothering me in any way.As a psychologist committed to Jesus Christ I believe  that I am  commissioned to help  the needy who  come to me seeking help.

If you are not raped in your real life, I  wish to know from your parents if  your mom  witnessed any rape in her personal life or other's life when she was  carrying you in her womb.

I also would like to know if  you as  an infant  was present in any situation where  any one was raped or had group sex. You  cannot  answer this  question, this  too needs  probing with your parents.

I will be able to answer you further after you answer me the above  questions.


Have   a nice  day
