Just now found your thread. I don't use the hug button because I don't like seeing a numerical value of hugs I have given. I will hug you with a smiley though.

I dissociated often when my ptsd was at its worst and I had lots of problems in therapy with remembering what was said. For months I would tell my T, I know we have discussed this already but I can't remember the conversation so can we talk about it again. She was very patient with me and after a lengthy time in therapy I improved but it oh so very difficult when my brain was overloaded and could not process all the input.

It does get better but sometimes not as quickly as we would want.
