Hi, in January this year I was assaulted at work by a patient and had six months off work as a result. I started seeing a health and wellbeing therapist who is part of the occupational health department of where I work. He insisted from the start that I had PTSD and I have being receiving EMDR and CBT. Within the last month I have being having a lot of issues relating to something that happened when I was 14. By a lot of issues I mean flashbacks, nightmares, (that's when I can sleep) I punish myself by not eating, drinking or allowing myself to relax. I feel a great deal of shame and self disgust as well as guilt. If I do eat I'm sick. I really want to talk to my therapist about this but I still find it really difficult to find the words. I've never said the words out loud to another soul...I've never typed them and I've only written them down once but I destroyed them straight afterwards. My question is, if I tell him what happened to me will he be obligated to report it to the police. I'm 36 now and this happened 22 years ago. I would rather suffer in silence than have to deal with the police knocking on my door. I'm based in the uk
