Sufferer New to this forum. beaten, raped, & left for dead.

[Fayne Jane]

I am new to this site, I have been in denial of my PTSD for 13 years and it has cost me relationships, jobs, my future. I was robbed one night when camping alone beaten raped and left for dead. I was working in a crisis house for kids and adults with developmentally disability and after 3 months of intense stress I lost it and went into an emotional flashback that took two weeks and Clonazapam to get me headed in the right direction. I have had 3 sessions of EMDR and found this site today which validated so many of my feelings of being in the process of EMDR. I read so many stories that validated my experiences of how hard EMDR is.

Well then...I can relate to all of that, so it's nice to know I'm not the only "survivor" who knows what being "left for dead" feels like!
Stay strong & enjoy the many helpful things this website has to offer!:hug:

I have already learned so much from this site. I am doing EMDR and some of the postings validated the fall out feelings I am having. I have had three sessions and was about to quit do to the anger, pain, crying and total disruption to my life. Now I see that this is very normal and others have been through EMDR with similar experiences. So I am proceeding on with therapy

Thanks yes it was a horror that I am just coming to terms with
