Physical & Emotional Abuse Support Group
Abuse is a general term for the treatment of someone that causes some kind of harm (to the abused person, to the abusers themselves, or to someone else) that is unlawful or wrongful. No one deserves abuse, period. Abuse can be emotional, physical, or sexual.
I am having massive flashbacks. They just wont stop.
My roommate got frustrated with her kid after two hours of him refusing to go to bed. She started screaming at him to got to bed and didn't stop. I was in another room and could not see her, only hear. She started smacking her hands together while yelling to get his attention to make him listen and go to bed. My boyfriend told me she was doing this that way, not abusively... but it reminded em of my past.
If I didn't listen to my mom I would be screamed at at the very least... usually hit, hard. I have been having massive flashbacks over and over sense this screaming started. They just wont stop and I do not know what to do. I am shaking and freaking out. My roommate has sense stopped yelling at her kid and my boyfriend has something distracting on the TV but it hasn't stopped the flashbacks.
Can anyone help me?

Are you getting treatment
for your depression?
If not, please get connected
with sme kind of therapy.
That will be supportive
for the flashbacks, as well.
Please take care of yourself.
Belleruth Naparstek does guided imagery for relaxation and PTSD. Her website is www.healthjourneys.com & she offers a free 15 min relaxation download. I highly recommend her guided imagery.
You might also search youtube for "guided imagery relaxation." Also do a search for Belleruth Naparstek. There is a series of interviews w/her about PTSD. This is a link for the first of the series. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PgmATF2suE
Hope this helps.
