Sorry to confuse you there skybark.

When I am reffering to my T I say shrink or psychiatrist. T is one of the 9 that has assaulted me etc.

Don't want to mention his name on here ya know.

I have come a huge way in terms of my PTSD. I have a feeling that I will always get triggers. There are bound to be a time where I run into someone from my past. "T" I didn't see this weekend because I didn't go down to the boat, no regrets.... I had a good weekend with my boyfriend ...

So I'm feeling better about that....

Everytime there is a trigger I write it down in great detail on paper and always bring it into my sessions. My psychiatrist recommended that if I did go to the boat this past Friday to stay away from him, and I guess I did that huh.

The fact that he is still in contact with my sis is a bit weird, but oh well. What can you do. I am never home anyways so if he's been to the house recently I wouldn't have known, and if he was coming that i'd likely make it a point to not be here. Avoidance with people like that from my past I think is key .... to keep me from becoming stuck.
