Memory built up

Hi

When you have a neurosis you tend to repeat the same pattern in your life, or do the same action, as if there's a memory built up and the thing is stuck with that.

I'm not sure I understand that last part of the sentence. I take it to mean that the memory is kind of closed and nothing can get out of it?
Is there a better way to same the same?

Hi - The person has an unconscious memory that they continually go back to. They don't want to be aware of it, but they must keep revisiting it until the feelings that built up at that time are released. Until that happens, they are stuck with the feelings associated with that memory Dave
