Hey guys,
Have had ptsd after sexual assaults. Been doing EMDR, which finnally seems to be doing... something. But discovered I HATE male attention. I have a bf and want his attention, but aaanyone else sets my nerves on edge. Im overeating and not taking care of myself. I want to be ugly as I feel; a form of protection I think. How do I get passed the feelings about this? I feel disgusting to the point i want to drink myself into obvilion. Who can you talk to that isnt paid to listen? Its just too much for most people and its impossible to not need to talk about it? This silence we have to endure is agonising and it can't all wait until the next therapy session? Any advice on what to do with these thoughts and the need to talk?
Thanks guys xx
