Almost everyone who comes to this board is going through the same thing. I sometimes choose to look at it like reading a good book. Sometimes there are ugly, reviling things that happen in the story, but then that chapter ends. It's important to remember those parts to give relavence to the rest of the book, but it's not necessary to revisit and re-read and reexperience it all. It's better to enjoy the section you are reading now, and anticipate the pleasures and joys of reading what's ahead.
But then, my mind works in strange ways sometimes...
