Hi, new to these forums. Have just started receiving PTSD therapy due to a armed robbery I was the victim of almost 20 years ago. On Monday my therapist wanted to teach me a grounding technique by taking me back to a happy memory where I was safe and secure. She wanted me to go back to these memories a couple of times a day, however I've been finding in doing so, when thinking of the memory of feeling safe, holding my dad's hand this makes me upset as well! This is what I don't really understand, is it because I'm sad that I don't feel this safe feeling right now and this is what's making me sad?
Any advice greatly appreciated, thankyou.
