(((Open))) What a horrible past couple of days for you. I'm so sorry. The triggers, flashbacks are nothing short of horrible. I'm happy you were able to speak to your T in a way that was comfortable for you. I think thats great. The energy needed to spend on that drive could have only added more stress to your already painful and stressful day.
You seem to have a greater grasp on PTSD than I do. All I know is I do not like it and would not wish it on my worste enemy.
Sometimes the "little" things, well they are not little to us, are so applified it seems impossible to focus and move forward. It's the pain, anger, sadness that seems to get stuck (at leaste for me). Memories and feelings can be overwhelming.
I'm sorry for your triggers and what you are having to face now in helping your daughter. I can only imagine how hard that must be for you. It's like, when will this stuff end! Come on give me a break already.
I hope you are sleeping well tonight and will wake up feeling somewhat refreshed.
Sending you a big hug.
Share, vent, cry away, I'll be around and so will many others.
