Feeling without remembering comes from dissociation, the brilliant survival strategy that allowed you to survive unbearable experiences by not being present for them. Now your body holds what your mind cannot access: the tightness in your chest, the panic in certain spaces, the terror that has no story. You react to triggers you cannot identify because your threat detection system remembers what your narrative self forgot.
Living haunted means reacting to ghosts, defending against history, organizing your life around danger you cannot name.
Integrating memory means working with the body to release what it holds, allowing fragments to surface safely, building a coherent story from somatic clues.
