I find that often things come forward and I slowly put whatever it is into words. Try to be positive with whatever you accomplish when it comes to verbalizing as trauma is stored in parts of the brain that does not have language. It can take time for all of these areas to get to a point where the language is all there. Allow yourself to do things in small parts/pieces as that is what works best with PTSD.
I like "these episodes come up, crest, and pass". That's excellent.

And I'll take on board, "Try to be positive with whatever you accomplish when it comes to verbalizing as trauma is stored in parts of the brain that does not have language. It can take time for all of these areas to get to a point where the language is all there." That's new to me and I'll log it away to keep learning.
