Ticli-Otops,

It takes time to recover from traumatic events - sometimes a whole lot of time. PTSD comes into play here. It’s real and it takes time to recover. How long it takes can depend on how you choose to deal with it. I hope this doesn’t sound too harsh…. But I find getting mad helps. Memories and flashback can wear us down and cause sleepless nights. Don’t allow that person to go on hurting you through your memories of the traumatic event. Let the thoughts come and go, they will for a time, but refuse to allow them to cause you anymore pain.
