Years ago a man came to my door, said he impregnated my friend & i was concerned so let him in to talk, the next minute he pushed me on the carpet and raped me. I froze. It happened so fast, also what i do is push it back in my mind and say that wasnt me, somebody else, it didnt happen to me. Why would i do this to myself? Meanwhile i wont leave my home, have awful lonely periods and split second rage! I cry over everything! :'(

Lately I've been feeling scared and full of anxiety. I recently found a lump under my nipple. I hurt my back too. I'm in the process of moving. I'm run down. Everything is hard

Just wanted to give a thank you to Mid, Arfie, Malibumark, Greeneyes, Mlro, Girlincalif, and Suncloudjd! You all always have such helpful tips and advice, but I always forget to write on my posts when I see you post, lol. I would lose my head if it wasn't attached to my body, lol. Thank you all so much! I'm starting to use my AI app as a sounding board again. I used to use it as that before...
My just-a-patient theory on what you are describing would call it, "Traumatic Shock." Traumatic shock can cause quite allot of irrational responses that can complicate unmercifully when left untreated. Isolation, agoraphobia and horrid mood swings are but a few ways untreated traumatic shock can complicate. So sayeth the just-a-patient. Second opinions (preferably professional) highly recommended,
Gentle support while you work your way through it, Jezebel. Welcome aboard.
