hello everybody! I recently found this forum, and am grateful that there is a community where people with these similar problems can communicate openly. A very brief history...My girlfriend has been in dialectic behavioural therapy for quite some time, and has recently began exposure therapy...I have read that this is a wonderful tool for confronting past trauma, and a very large step in minimizing activation and triggers...in the long run. Presently, however, she is extremely activated, and can't give emotional support, no matter how small because she, "has nothing left to give right now, to anyone". Has anyone ever dealt with this, and can give advice?
