Hello,

I have ptsd from a previous girlfriend being sexually assaulted. This brings on nightmares. My awareness to my triggers are becoming known. This is important as I am sensitive and building immunity. The nightmares I have is her being sexually assaulted by men. If anyone has any advice ill take it kindly.

Dear Devon,

It is heartbreaking that you are having these terrible nightmares. I wish I had ideas that would help but sadly I can't think of anything. Hopefully others here with more insight and experience in these things will have helpful wisdom to share with you. I sure hope you find something that helps you!

Sincerely yours, -- Yao Wen

Here's a link to an article, from PC's archives, on how to eliminate recurring nightmares:
