It sounds like a good idea to discuss your feelings about being hurt with your therapist and explore different possibilities as to what it could refer to. Hope he/she can help you a bit. take care  |
I've only recently learned that I have PTSD, and I had multiple triggers earlier in the day. I am not usually triggered, so that is a new experience for me
I've also just come back to the lab I work in at my university after being gone for a couple of weeks, which has caused some anxiety. The last time I slept a couple of nights ago I dreamt that I was having a panic attack, and all of the people I work with were there.
I think I will just tell her how I felt when I woke up and mention that I remembered the nightmare this time. When I've brought up nightmares before she'll usually ask if I remember them.
Thank you!
