Really Paranoid

[Raj]

Really paranoid since starting therapy and PSR. Everything is triggering me! Noises, rude people, people with the same names as abusers, smells, the slightest pressure from my spouse. When a car goes by I analyze to see if it is a threat or safe. I sat in the car instead of going into the store today afraid of being looked at or attacked. Will this ever get better or do I just have to get better at coping? I feel like an over boiled egg, more terrified than angry.

I've been more triggery and more on edge lately too...In your case, it could be related to therapy...That is to say, sometimes therapy has that effect. I hope that it will get better for you as you continue getting help.
