i have been having a very hard time for the last few months and i'm having a hard time understanding it. Is everything i am thinking true and what is happening? or have i some how created it in my head due to past experience and i'm unaware of it? especially since this event took place 10 years ago and has never affected me like this. if anyone can be of some help thank you

I don't think that we can answer whether or not something in your life is true or not...

This can happen..... Have you seen a doctor completely??….. Big hug...….xoo

A therapist helped me address the questions you're asking. My trauma began when I was 9 years old in a car bombing with my missionary family serving overseas. My PTSD really kicked in 20 years later, leading to a divorce and other major disruptions in my life that had to be addressed for me to move forward.

Going back 20 years skillfully to pinpoint how to address my trauma for healing took the professional guidance of a therapist trained in treating PTSD. Then support group help reinforced my putting that guidance to daily use. Putting together it gave me a path forward from a lot of confusion that had built up for years.
