Sky,

Thank you for your post... you see.. none of my T explained that what I was experiencing was PTSD.. until my therapist of 5 years ago... so I lived with the "idea" that everyone had flashbacks, triggers... and wake up screaming nightmares nightly..

So.. I wonder even if this "new" T of 10 months "gets" it,,, I don't think it matters anymore...for me.. I understand - finally and it has brought me peace.. just to know "it" has a name PTSD.. and that there are other people "like" me.. that also have it and understand it..
