My understanding is that we cannot force the mind to recover repressed memories. They will come when we are ready to remember them. This has been my experience as well. The handful of times I was able to make an end run around my mind's protective mechanisms, the memories were quickly lost or the file I wrote them down in was mysteriously missing from my computer.

I agree with Dissociated1. My memories were never really repressed. I always new I was abused and buried the emotions and memories. Once the memories started flooding from the flashbacks and nightmares it was like a freight chain. I believe the memories were always there but they became clearer once they started to appear in the flashbacks and nightmares. I do not think these were repressed memories but rather buried memories and when I was ready they resurfaced.
