Hey, Outlaw that's not an Illinois landscape is it? Looks like New Mexico or Colorado.

I've found there is sometimes a pressing need to talk. When that happens, talk. There are therapies like EMDR and brainspotting that don't require you to talk, although you can if you feel the need. I like somatic therapies like David Bercelis Trauma Releasing Exercises. Interesting YouTube videos of that. It feels really good, even if it looks a bit strange.

Good luck to you. You can feel good again. We are forever changed but we're not broken or damaged. We heal. We get better.

I even saw "schizotypy" get better with trauma therapy. So was it schizotypy or was it ptsd? Doesn't matter to me. It was fun, and now its gone. Such is life.
