Thankyou RussH!:) I didn´t write for awhile, but now I´m back. Today I have been with my husband to therapy. It was actually quite good. I found out something that I didn´t know before. As I understand it he also gets some kind of emotional flashback when he is going to talk to me. That is why...
RussH, I also want to tell you that I´m a christian and I also have seen the hand of God in this (my PTSD). I´m glad that you also can see his work even through the hard times. I have actuelly thought about this thing with Flashbacks. Maybe it is something very clever. You and I get the...
Yesterday I was invited to my friends house. She is the only friend I have since childhood (and probably the only friend I had then). Her parents were there. They talked a bit about us as children, but that is difficult for me since I don´t remenber. It is very obvious that my memory isn´t...
You are obviosly a strong man now who are able to show what is hurting within. I know how much pain bullying can give, I have also experienced that. I will follow you on this journey if I may.
I have got an article for you to read:

Read and you will have a lot of information about emotional Flashbacks and you can also read about a man.
I haven´t got the energy to write about the session me and my husband went to a couple of days ago, until now. ´This was the fourth session and it was the first one that I hadn´t prepared myself for. The reason was that I couldn´t focus.:confused: Afterwards I realized that I had been so tense...
I really hate emotional flashbacks..:bawling: I do get them quite often and I think many people with PTSD do, but it´s difficult to understand what´s going on sometimes. I recognize what Quin79 wrote. I also got them first and then I would get pictures or "movies" a while later. I think it would...
This morning I have talked to the therapist (psycologist?) in my daughters school. They have also noticed that our youngest daugther seem to be unhappy. I told him about the situation; me having PTSD. I want to do everything for my daughters, but it feels like I´m failing...:( This afternoon it...
I think I have dissociated a lot this afternoon. I wrote a bit about what happend when I was two years old (in another forum) and I think it might have been that that effected me. :(
Thankyou for your respons!:) I´m so sorry you too have to experience this...:(It´s OK to ask questions and I can try to answear. English is not my first language (maybe you have already understood that) so we´ll see what I´m able to...
This started when everything was fine. I was happy. I felt...
I want to tell you about those things that have been secrets during my entire Life, at least until I turned 40 years old. When I say secret I mean secret for everybody, both myself and other people. I had lost my memories of my childhood and I thought it must be because of some light...
Now it´s been better for about 24 h.:) I haven´t felt so bad and it might be beacause I haven´t been alone. It is very triggering for me to be alone.:barefoot: I feel abandoned (Spelling?). So then it might have been mostly Flashbacks anyway...:confused: Oh, I´m so mixed up! I really don´t...
I have been thinking... I think a lot of my emotions comes from the present situation. It is very difficult between me and my husband so I´m really stressed out.:banghead::cry: It is also very triggering due to trauma in my childhood. It makes it worse. But still: this present situation is quite...
Thankyou so much for your help! It actually helps just reading about other people and realizing that I´m not alone. I also got some hope from you macca, maybe this therapy will help my husband to understand what really is going on. I really hope so!:tup: When it comes to reading, my husband...
I am tired. I´ve been more or less in emotional Flashbacks for several weeks. I Think it is due to the situation with my husband. We have started therapy together and it has made it worse. He is very quite and I don´t know what he is thinking. This is like my father did to me during childhood...
Try to let him think by himself, but just send a message that you are there if he wants (if you want that of course). I think it is one of these things that has to happen when you have this experiece. It is difficult for me with the language, but I think the right word might be...
Thankyou all for your answears! Change, I also think it is important to look at this like that: we are two people and we share our traumatic experiences. Sometimes this question comes up though and then it feels important. (I have a bit difficult with the language. i hope it makes sense anyway).
