First nightmare in a long time

[KIP.]

Last night was a bad one. In the past these would floor me for days, even weeks. Just want to let the ladies know who are experiencing these at the moment that it does pass and even if they rear their ugly heads now and again, its only a nightmare. He cant touch me. Onwards and upwards….. 😃

Thanks Kip. I’m currently signed off work because all the horrible stuff has come back with a vengeance, like nightmares, flashbacks etc. Been put on anti depressants too :-S

Hey Dragonfly, you cant rush the healing process, just be very kind to yourself and let your brain work through the trauma. Make sure you have a good therapist too. Or at least use the helplines to talk things out when you need to. I used rape crisis helpline, samaratains and womens aid. Its taken nearly three years for me to begin to feel well again so just let time heal you and take all the help you can get meantime. Dont underestimate the effects of trauma.hang in there x
