I am 46 years old & live in the Southeastern USA. I am most uncertain about extending myself here.
I feel incredibly insane. I can't remember the most basic of things. I can only sleep in the daytime so I can see everything if, (more like WHEN) I wake suddenly. The ongoing flashbacks, hypervigilence & anxiety are part of my daily existence. How are others dealing with this?
Everything is a trigger, even the totally quiet moments. Especially the quiet moments... How can I convey what I see & feel to those who have no clue? No one wants to believe something satanic could happen in their neighborhood. I didn't either at one time. I was held for over 3 days. I am looking for hope. I lost my medical career after many years because I had a flashback at work. Told me I was a liability. Now I just exist. Fragmented memories & constant panic. How can I make things better? I'm exhausted. I do see a therapist, but cannot find a therapist who has dealt with this.
