I came across this website when looking for dealing with Trauma stuff online. We have less than 2 months left of school! My flashbacks have been pretty intense and I'm a bit afraid of how they will be when I'm out of school for the summer (I'm a teacher). Has anyone ever heard of this or experienced this themselves?

What type of symptoms do women have when they come to WIIT?
The women that come to WIIT are often very frightened by what is going on inside them. They are depressed, angry, hurt, confused. They suffer from anxiety and panic attacks, they have trouble sleeping, they see pictures or hear voices, they make unhealthy relationship choices, their marriages or families are in trouble. Some have been involved with drugs, alcohol, sexual acting out, bingeing/purging, compulsive spending, etc. Most are bothered by suicidal thoughts or feel very tired of life.
WIIT reduces and stabilizes the internal crisis and conflict that go on inside the trauma survivor. They can help you get through stuff that would take a long time in outpatient therapy. Then you can return to your therapist calmer and much better able to take advantage of their help.

I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A friend sent this to me..As far as I can see, grief will never truly end.It may become softer overtime, more gentleand some days will feel sharp.But grief will last as long as Love does - ForeverIt's simply the way the absence of your loved onemanifests in your heart. A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
I'm sure there are some residential in-patient treatment programs or out-patient programs around...just have to search for them.
I had a link to one with a long list on them, I'll see if I can find it.
One thing I would definitely ask about is what THERAPY STYLES they use there...I think that would be important to know. I would hope a place like that would integrate a lot of therapy modalities into their program.
I would love to go to a place like that, but with kids, I can't see myself doing that.
