I have to tell her when she comes on Monday. There was a really bad day which she is now on report for and I currently don't trust her I don't know if I'll be able to continue working with her. She wants to know of a specific thing she did that upset me so much or made me angry on that day, and...

I would think that dealing with triggers is like dealing with anxiety, probably one of the best ways to overcome it is very slow exposure. Honestly I haven't got any more advice than that. I've found going out and being around people easier than I used to and I've been trying to do social...

Trauma is a deeply distressing or disturbing experience that overwhelms an individual's ability to cope, so yeah you seem traumatised to me

Now she's saying she does believe it happened she just couldn't believe how it could have happened. I don't get why anything he did to me would be so hard to believe when he'd already abused so many people in the family. I seem to be the only one she doesn't take seriously. She just says one of...

A counsellor before thinks I have ptsd and anyway my old kooth worker is filling in a form to refer me to the mental health service I assume she will write on that my explanation of everything and they would decide themselves if an assessment would be suitable/if I might have it.

My autism worker today said she doesn't know how I'd be diagnosed with ptsd cause I have autism and she says autism is making it more difficult for me to process things. What do people think about this? Have you had a problem getting a ptsd diagnosis cause you already had an autism diagnosis...

I tried not that long ago to get my gp to refer me to the mental health team for a ptsd assessment but they wouldn't see me I'm trying again but with my old kooth worker referring me but I don't know if I'll get seen.

Why?

I have to write what I'm specifically upset about with the bad day that happened with my autism worker. The main thing is that she triggered me by reminding me of person in my nightmare but really so she actually understands what I'm talking about I need to explain it all fully. I started...

I was 11 when he came out of prison. That's when I found out about my sisters abuse I'm nearly 24 now. I was uncomfortable and didn't ask any more questions then when it was nanny's birthday we went out for a meal,which we did every year. One sister is 5 years older and I'm not sure how much...

My stress cup has not only overflowed, it has flooded my room. Lilac

24 hour night

9 stress cup has flooded my room 🤕😔

I tried to properly read this about 10 million times cause I kept crying again when I thought I'd stopped. My nose keeps running and I can't breathe properly cause my nose is blocked and my throat is all gunky. For some reason seeing please believe me keeps making me cry. I don't know if I've...

No one suggested I was raped when I had the first nightmare and with any other nightmares. I had a flashback of being held down which I believe to be real and a sexual abuse counsellor said in her experience flashbacks are real cause if they weren't why would you have a flashback. He wasn't...

I'd sit next to him then feel terrified but still choose to stay there for as long as I could but normally I'd get too anxious and go back upstairs. It was like I was giving myself exposure therapy. I just let him hug me in the restaurant incident at first just feeling uncomfortable and...

At the time I didn't remember being abused by him before but I new about him abusing other people. My ex friend said I was sick when I told her what I was doing (sitting alone with him to see if he'd do anything) and said I shouldn't want to be abused.

I've had a few rape nightmares recently and I also had a flashback of grandad holding me down on a bed me saying stop stop, the duvet disappearing and then only seeing part of my bare arm with one of his hands on the wrist I could see. And my vagina throbbing. I believe the flashback was real...

@Roland hi sorry for bugging you but since you mentioned the fawn mode today what do you think of my post here?

So errm was that what I was doing? Fawning?

So for people's understanding, my grandad abused my sisters and went to prison for it many years ago. He got out and it felt like everyone pretty much acted like nothing happened though we saw him only once a year at first. Eventually he got quite ill and when taking him to hospital nanny was...

Everyone else moved on years ago when he went to prison

He apparently abused and was weird around like 7 people in my family according to my dad, not including me and a friend of my great aunt who is about 10 years younger than my nanny who married grandad when she was 19. I seem to be the only one who isn't taken seriously cause I forgot about the...

It wasn't exactly a perfect family considering he'd already been to prison for abusing my sisters but I think when he got out they wanted things to go back to normal as much as possible

I trust the two incidents I remember that happened after g was out of prison even if mum doesn't think one of them happened cause apparently someone would have seen and I didn't seem distressed at the time but she was also annoyed that I didn't say anything at the time cause he would have gone...
