For me some parts have gotten better some worse, but that's how healing goes. Have to keep peeling away those onion skins until you expose the core.
I don't fear death, in fact I welcome it. Though I'm not wanting to take my own life. But if it happens it happens.
Glad you are back in the CPTSD forum, you were missed.

Trace, as soon as I talked about getting better with handling trauma, I got sucker punched by reality. Yesterday I had one of the worst triggered flashbacks ever. I can tell you the worst ones are the ones that you don't see coming at you. I was just chillin watching the movie "The Invasion" with Nicole Kidman and unexpectedly a person (pedestrian) gets hit by a car. The visuals and audio were very realistic and close to what happened to me. Too realistic for me. It brought me lock stock and barrel back to being run down again. It was a full body (if not out of body) experience. My whole body shook violently as if I has being hit again. I had nausea and almost passed out. I'm sure my heart skipped some beats. I had to close my eyes for awhile to regain my composure. It was quite intense.:

Well I guess its back to the drawing board.

Shalom.
