Hey @jai-jai- I am an alcoholic with nearly 9 years of sobriety. Are you comfortable sharing what your DOC was and what tools/programs you used to stop?

I need to feel through this numbness. My PTSD has been on fire. Triggered by a few things. I've been having flashbacks from when I was a kid.
My mother threatening to hit me, begging me to push her over the edge, then I wake out of it, like I'm trapped in a bubble, watching myself react to it. I'm realizing my trauma might be more focused on Cptsd... I don't know how to deal with this anymore.
My breathing and grounding skills aren't helping. The emotional abuse I feel after is so real, I feel very responsible for what happened, for everytime I sent her over the edge. It was my fault, I deserve to be punished for that.
I feel like I'm walking thru my life indifferent to everything, trying to guess how I'm supposed to act, or be, or do. I feel crazy most of the time, with no clear direction. I can see everything in my life starting to suffer beyond my control.
Urgh, I just want to pretend that I'm normal for 1 day. Instead of clouded by this shadowing darkness, it's suffocating.
