Thank you so much @EveHarrington and @Justmehere for your tactful approach. I was coming back to this thread to apologize to any whom I might have offended and/or triggered when I saw your replies. I didn't have any malicious intent in asking the opinions of strangers. Yes, I could definitely...

I am back in therapy for a year now.

And @Ragdoll Circus, no I could not direct them to my house from the middle of nowhere. We were no longer in my town, and even if we were, I was only familiar with the L-shaped route that my bus took to and from school. We did not have a car, so we kids did not go anywhere other than to school...

Wow. I really must beg everyone's forgiveness for naively adding what details and thoughts I do remember. I'm going to have to consult my book of etiquette before I post anything else on this "support" site.

@Ragdoll Circus , what fluff have I added? My "mother" and her husband weren't concerned because they were on drugs, were constantly bringing addicts and dealers into the house. What I've written here is the truth. I don't understand your bit about a narrative. I know that I repress things quite...

Um. Wow. Trying to calm myself down right now, stop the heavy throbbing in my arms and chest and throat. Yes, if some sicko were to come on here and fabricate something like this for whatever reason, I agree that that would be beyond horrible. But this is a memory/gap of mine from when I was...

Fifteen years ago, a teenage girl is told by her drug addicted mother one day after school that she must go and babysit for a stranger one night: a woman, a nurse, who has two toddler boys. The young girl is used to taking care of other people's children, so doesn't really mind since it's a...

Yes, I'm definitely experiencing the spastic movements. I was starting to think I was somehow doing these movements kind of on purpose.

So you did unblock emotionally? May I ask how, if you don't mind? Have you ever experienced images come to your mind while doing TRE or afterward?

Question for anyone who is still doing TRE: A member from a different support site mentioned that doing TRE sometimes caused her to react with kicks and punches, self-defense movements. I have found that sometimes after tremoring for a minute or two... ...my body will position itself in such a...

Ugh, this is all so crazy. Thank you for sharing. I do understand the self-protection aspect. I think I'm going to go ahead and start therapy again so this brain will feel safer. My insurance is not the best, however, so finding one that knows what they're doing, that will inspire confidence...

I know this is an old forum, but was wondering how you would do TRE mindfully. I've been doing them for a week independently and am not currently in therapy.

That's a thought. I'll take it into consideration. Thank you.

Hmmm... that's probably what's preventing them. I do feel secure in life, but I did have a baby this year so maybe I'm worried about any kind of depression relapse and that affecting her. As far as secure, I definitely do not have a support system unless you include the online community at...

I have had what I suppose are sudden intrusive memories and one actual terrifying flashback of a childhood assault. I've seen body parts and the actual trauma itself, but I've yet to be able to see the guy's face. I can think of some suspects based on circumstantial evidence but my brain has yet...

My disabled sister lives with me now, but before that I always had to have the door shut all the way in order to sleep. Now I have to leave it cracked :-(
