Years ago, I went to a movie and I didn't know the movie had a gang rape scene in it and when we were driving home I started sobbing uncontrollably, I could not stop. My husband did not understand what was the big deal (we are separated 25 or so years now).
I have PTSD and resultant dissociation from early childhood trauma and neglect. The scene in the movie was reminiscent of an incident when I was a child forced into a room similar to the one on the screen, a shed looking place or basement cellar. I had buried the memory so deeply when the sobbing was occuring I didn't know why, either.
It was later I realized those scenes in the movie were like what happened to me, in real life as a child. I think there may be something like this for you but different and since you are a caregiver there are lots of traumas associated with that too and well, you are just worth the work you have to do is how I see it. Keep going to a new therapist till you find one who can truly help by doing real therapy with you, not just talking .
