There are things that I KNOW happened.. that I do remember. But there are gaps and also an ever present sense that something really horrible is hiding somewhere in the depths of my mind and I feel like I'm just waiting for it to jump out and attack me. But perhaps that's just the PTSD talking.  |
It makes 1000% sense!
I'm going through the same thing. Reading or watching things, then feelings and flashbacks come and I'm torn between thinking it could've happened or if it's just empathy or from internalizing that stuff.
I've come a decent way in the past 1-2 months on dealing with the denial, but it's still a daily battle.
I especially empathize with your last paragraph.
Just know you're not alone, okay?
