I did, worked with my therapist for over 5 years and thought I'd covered the PTSD issues enough so I could carry on and use the tools that she gave me. I took about a four-month break but kept thinking of the anger I felt about "the originator" to the abuse. My life hadn't really changed, I still had horrible migraines in which I researched (could tie in with PTSD) and haunting flashbacks of the past. Also, I was sexually abused by a neighbor and emotionally abused by my narcissistic mother who showed little empathy and constantly criticizing me. I began questioning, which was worse, the sexual or emotional abuse? and began therapy once again to delve into this.

Making the choice to go back has been a wise one, working on discovering if this is the catalyst in all of my lifetime hurt and pain.
