Hi, thanks for your reply and I’ll be sure to check the website out. From my therapy grounding is great and box breathing too for panic attacks but with flashbacks it’s like my body lifts up and goes somewhere else (where the trauma was) so I don’t feel in my own body if that makes sense. Thankfully on this occasion I was with my boyfriend and he helped ground me but I was screaming and totally unable to unfreeze myself to do it alone. Well that’s how it felt anyway. I’ve not heard of the butterfly one so I’ll check that out too.
My therapy was with the nhs and I had 18 sessions which I was told was the max allowed. On the whole I’m ok day to day now, I have ups and downs but when the nightmares or flashbacks happen I feel a bit lost at sea as to what to do next. I don’t feel rehashing it back in the service is useful as I feel like I’m past the early trauma but need help with the future management.
Thanks also for the PM offer. X
