Hi all :-) I’m new to this forum so wanted to say hello. Back in Dec 2018 I had severe post natal ocd/anxiety/depression, after having my 4th little one. (Never had any problems before). I had to go into hospital and then a mum and baby unit for 4 and a half months.
To cut a long story short, the other day I had to go back to the hospital where I was admitted for something else (phsyical). This was on the exact same date that I was admitted Dec 2018 with all the postnatal stuff.
A few days after going back this time I started to feel really “out of it” like dissociated. Then I started getting that bit of panic/anxiety and that has now just grew into last night an awful flashback where it almost overtook now, it’s was literally like I was right there, like the past 3 years hadn’t happened and it was terryifing.
Does anybody else suffer with flashbacks? If that’s what this is? It’s so distressing and every day now I expect to wake up anxious and for it all to happen again.
Thanks
Alice
