Q: Repressed Memories

Recently, I been in such a state of depression over remembering repressed memories that I had never given a thought to until recently. Here is some background. When I grew up, I never had any friends. I had a medical condition and was held back from socializing because my parents were afraid of me being away from them. I was cured when I became an early adult. Due to being held back, I never did anything, such as playing with others, growing up. I was always home on computers, programming. I only went to two parties ever. I didn't start dating until my mid 20's after I finished all of my schooling. My parents also pushed me to concentrate on school and career, which I have and am now very successful. Since then, I have done everything I have ever imagined to do, am socially active, compete in sports, but recently, for some reason, I can't seem to get it off my mind about not really having a childhood. It has really started bothering me and I don't know why. I haven't told my wife about this bothering me. Do I need to see a therapist? Why would all of that start to bother me in my late 30's?
