You are welcome Trace, I was very, very confused when I developed PTSD which eventually produced challenges from my past that only confused me even more. I have realized now that because the major trauma was such a dramatic invasion causing damage to more than I could manage emotionally and that situation has still been unresolved, that presented me with magnifying other situations from my past where things happened to me where my boundaries were also invaded badly.

I did "not" get the right help at first either, as I have mentioned, which only made my challenge even worse too. If I can help anyone avoid that challenge I do so because it's already hard enough to understand this challenging PTSD, an individual deserves to have a therapist who actually KNOWS what it means and is patient, understanding and SAFE to work with.
