I'm sorry if this is a repeat of anyone else's post, but I really need some information from those who have had/gone through flashbacks.
As of late, this has been a terrible problem for me. I feel like I'm constantly warding off this pull into history. I can hear, and feel everything and it sends me into spiraling anxiety until I'm crying and hugging my knees. I can't keep this up, esp since its starting to affect my therapy. I either break down and freak out, have a flashback right in front of her, or I am so afraid that I will have one that I'm afraid to speak. My therapist has been great, and worked hard to calm me down, but I can't always be there enough to keep her in my mind, to allow her to be helpful.
What do I do?? I feel really bad, and am worried that she is going to send me to someone else. I can't go to someone else, I just can't. Please does anyone have any experiences with this, and or suggestions?
