Flashbacks
I'm on the new sleep medication Prozasin. It helps relieve my nightmares but I still have flashbacks during the day especially under the current quarantine. My pdoc reminded me that people who were bullied by family members during childhood can feel trapped and threatened during holidays or any other time the whole family might be home for an extended period. Noticing the feelings and writing about them is a step forward. I'm ready to take more steps forward now. I should be careful not to push it though. One thing at a time, one day at a time, sometimes just one hour at a time is enough.
