I sincerely hope you were able to find a way to ground yourself. It is so frightening, the flashbacks. I find distraction to be my best defense - even if it's making a little list ie sweep floor, fold laundry, chop wood, put papers away. Any little thing to help quiet down the volume of the trigger.

I know this is so hard and sometimes the chaos is so over-whelming and the triggers so very real and the body memories. We understand. If it helps, write it out here and then let it go. It's okay to write whatever it is you need to write. We are all in this together. Gentle Hugs if okay, Song
