That sounds really difficult I am sorry that is happening. I do stuff sorta of like this in my relationships sometimes about that abolish the police group that I witnessed the violent crime when I was around. I get very scared when I meet most new people that they could be someone from that...
Yes the truama from being around that Abolish the police group had the most negative impact on my relationships currently. I don't know if there is anything the police can do right now they are just following me around when I have asked them to not do that, and I have been threanted with serious...
Thanks for the support Paula! I am having a hard time with it but I do want to work on it. I have heard positive things about EMDR from another person also. I made a timeline for written exposure therapy in therapy for the I got sexually assulted and a abusive ex partner truama. Really I needed...
I'm glad that works for you. I need to do internally healing also and I do. It looks different for me. My triggers and there on me isn't helpful and it makes me feel bad about myself. My triggers are pretty specific and that abolish the police group what I witnessed it really impacts my...
Honestly just to say the impact being around that group has one my relationship with others stopped me from joining a zoom support group. But it's like not wrong to avoid because I should probably avoid thing that have cause me that serious of harm. But I like the idea of triggers can be a way...
I have that truama from being around a abolish the police group. I witnessed a act of sexual violence crime and some other really bad truamatizing stuff happened. That crime was not even the worst thing that happened. It was the worst thing I witnessed tho. I witnessing that crime re brought up...
Yeah I used to try to manage my anger with self defense classes but I am just journaling about my anger then going through it with my therapist.
I do think that threanting someone and following People around that have asked you to not to is illegal
That group that I was around that led to me witnessing sexual violence still has a really negative impact on my relationship. I got threatened, people have tried to fight me and they follow me around. I dont know what I can do except for like filing a police report and seeing if they can help.
Thanks! I do have some more healing to do. I struggle with relationships sometimes as a result. I found it encouraging that people here are sometimes supporters with partners and friends with trauma. I worry sometimes that there is a lack of support for the people in my life that are there for...
I am pretty sure this a common response to having been abused. Sometimes people do not like touch, its important for people to respect your boundaries about not like that. Your friends if they know could be trying to help like show some touch is safe when it is done between people that mutual...
I agree with the comment about go to therapy for this. Also, I would delete all the pictures you have access to of the person that sexually assaulted you, delete block do what you got to do to prevent you self from ever seeing or contacting that person. Your probably doing that because your are...
Thanks for sharing this. This probably depends on the type of therapy you are doing and what you are like as an individual. I tried mindful self-soothing techniques when I was around that group I was trying to avoid. You are totally not the only person that avoids things, I do. But some...
I can really avoid anything that reminds me of the experience I had when I witness a horrible crime in the park. I recently was around something that reminded me of it that I tried to cope with because it was the reminder where happening in a club I really wanted to join. It was so distressing...
