Do Your Flashbacks Come In Themes?

[Ronin]

My mentee had a hilarious line about that, if things fly at you, let them do instead of smacking them down and shutting out your rich life... and weren't you worried the other time unnoted things weren't real? :facepalm:

But she was right at the point. Overwhelmed as f*ck means still having the life.
So just trying to keep my reactions present an fitting. Or not. But not big deal. Just the excusable crazy.

Mine seem to, but I’m still learning...current triggers tend to reignite the same ones...but often there is one main trigger that starts the cycle/relapse. It was changing my daughters nappies that started the most recent ones and then I’m sensitive to all triggers...but yes the theme or scene is often repetitive.
I guess it makes sense in that the originally triggered memory is over stimulated and sensitive so it keeps coming out....no idea...still confused as to how they come at all tbh.

Imprisonment and never being able to escape. Recurrent night after night, but stopped finally. Actually think it was due to a medication at the time that was not good for me because when I stopped it, felt 100% better and with talk therapy, the same ole nightmare stopped. Horrible at the time because once you wake up, sometimes it takes hours to get back to sleep.
