I struggled with thd leg taps slightly due to the contact and low proximity between me & my therapist. But the eye movements im really really struggling with, as hand movements make me flinch and very on edge. my therapist is going to carry on with thd eye movements as she needs to be able to...

My dog is amazing, my therapist joked and asked if he could go on the pay roll and work for her during all her sessions Its funny you mention where i sit in relation to my therapust. Where still trying to get the right. I cant have people do sudden movements infront of me, touch me or be too...

Thank you katie, its nice to know i does happen, and it wasnt me being strange. I was and still am absolutly mortified about it. My therapist is really really good during our sessions, im lucky to have the access to a hoghly qualified trauma therapist. Im back at therapy today im dreading it...

Ohhh im glad it didnt exacerbate things for you. Im pleased to heart you got to work through alot during your therapy session just make sure your kind to yourself over the next few days, you'll probaly be physically and mentally drained. Thank you again for your helpful input on this thread...

Thank you so much for your replies, even though your tired and frazzled, i really appreciate it. I hope it hasn't caused you any distress? Your reply has been realt helpful! I dont react in anger, i tend to just demand to leave and will do anything to leave. If im not totally dissociated i tend...

I hope it doesnt aswel, i can honestly say its trueky awful situation to be in.... It happened to me a couple of weeks ago whilst i was in medical hospital. The nurses faces were that of sheer shock, terror And bewillderment. They knew i had PTSD but didnt have a clue what it entailed.

hi, Thank you for your reply to this thread. I normally react in the same way as you, i completly zone out. My therapist has struggled in previous weeks to ground me using all the normal groundind techniques she usually would. She mentioned the next week she was getting really worried at what to...

My therapist is fantastic, shes is fantastic at hef job. I feel safe in her care, where as my previous therapist never made me feel safe or confident she was able to deal with sessions and what may happen during them (flashbacks & dissociation). I totally get you, and how you felt after your...

@barefoot Thank you for your reply, i apprecaite you telling me what happened even though it was extremely difficult situation you where in at the time! You actually said how i feel, but wasnt able to find the words for. I am literally mortified of what happened, and scared of what i did/ said...

Thank you, you really are so very helpful! I will defiantly let my therapist know the predicament im in, ill probably find it easier to write it down for her than tell her verablly face to face

Thank you for your reply, it really helped to know in not the only one. How does your therapist deal with it when you do leave? My therapist is struggling with this part as she knows she cant lock or pin me in a room as this would cause a re-traumatisation and really distress me. But she also...

Thank you so much for your lovely reply. I left her office feeling totally stupid, and also bad that she had to witness it... I am very lucky to have a brilliant therapist who is very very understanding. I just need to get better at opening up as i really struggle to trust people, let alone with...

Hi, Ive had a tough few weeks with having an operation and having to stay in hospital. During this time i was severly triggered during my hospital stay, and it just wont go. I went to therapy today, and my therapist wanted to discuss the re-traumatisation. This lead into a full blown...

I have a rare medical condition called Ehlers Danlos syndrome which has resulted in me being tube fed. Last week i was taken in to change my tube from an NJ which is placed through the nose, to a PEG-J which is surgically placed directly into the stomach. For the procedures i was given medazolan...

I will definatly do that ☺️ Thank you xx

Im very much the same,@JustBe, id never be seen walking the streets without my dog, not even to the top of the road. Dogs are such an invaluable possession to people like ourselves. Theres no judgement, anger, or upset from them just uncondiional love

Awwwww your dog sounds so cute!! im so pleased your allowed to take your dog with you to Therapy also, i just wish everyone was allowed. But not everyones therapists/ therapist offices are as accomodating as ours. How cute that he has his own toy at the session, i bet its saved so many little...

Your very welcome

My therapist is absolutly amazing, she is so so good at the job she does! Im very very lucky! I would definatly ask your new therapist about bringing your dog in, and explain how they help you groun during times when your having flash backs and dissociating. Im sure if it makes the therapists...

Awww how lovely! I cant even explain how much my dog helps me physically and mentally, id literally be lost without him and housebound. Its so nice when people/ places accept that your dog is a necessary part of your life and needs to be with you. Many shops wont let my dog in as theyve never...

Hahahaha!! Reading this made me laugh =P lol xx

Your dog sounds amazing =) he sounds very much like my dog. Mine is medical alert trained but not emotionally trained. But when im dristressed he'll do what ever he can to help me. Im sure you'll agree a dog is (wo)mans bestfriend =) xx

I have a 'medical alert' dog who is trained for my physical health problems. I never normally take him to therapy sessions i leave him at home. In my last session i completely dissociated and my therapist tried several things to bring me back without success. She even admitted that she was...

Thank you for your reply! Its thd first time ive done it in therapy with my new therapist. At home i do it quite alot, ive even come round curled up in the bath (no water)?! I have no recolection of how i got there! I sometimes have injuries from the process of getting to where i end up. Im...
