I am putting it here to see if anyone else has experienced this or has any input on what I'm trying to sort out.

So.

Friday night, the husband and I were talking about going to my mom's for Christmas and some really hard things were talked about between us. He actually said he was sorry that I had grown up in that kind of environment.

Well, not in those exact words but that is what he meant.

I went to bed, and the next morning I woke up and had these strange marks on my right upper wrist.

It didn't hurt, it wasn't itchy, there was no bruising or pain of any sort. It was really strange and disturbing to me.

When I looked at it, it reminded me of a picture that a part of me drew in session with my counselor. My mind went directly to it.

I don't really want to go into detail about all of that, unless someone else has had a similar experience and would like to share it here.

I'm more than open to talk about it, I just didn't want to put it out there so open because it really feels "out there".

I'm trying to figure out if I did it to myself in my sleep or if it's some kind of somatic memory bringing itself forward, from what I was sharing with my husband the night before. I've tried to think of how I would have done it and there is nothing that I can think of that would explain it.

It's almost faded away now. There is a trace of it left but there is still not pain, bruising, itching or any after effect feeling of an injury or trauma there.

This is really the strangest thing, next to the picture of the little being drawn, that's happened with me.

Just curious.
in me any time I woke up with unexplainable marks and pains in my wrists it turned out to be a physical health issue like my MS, carpal tunnel, Arthritis, anemia, a sleep walking issue and pressure point (not the kind where you do acupuncture or first aid. it was sleeping so heavily that because of lack of natural shifts of positions spots on my body became sensitive to the mattress springs or pressure of my body laying in a position for so long. and sometimes when I am busy the day before I may not notice the natural bumps like brushing by furniture or that playing with the pets or children caused a sensitive spot on my arms, wrists or legs....

in other words it has always been because of a physical health problem or a non dissociative problem in me.

my suggestion is if this continues to bother you contact your medical doctor who can get you set up for a whole bunch of physical and mental tests like sleep studies, MRI's, and blood work and other tests that can actually diagnose what this problem is in you.
