I'm don't think I'm depressed. Maybe I am but their is so much going on in my head I feel like I am going crazy. I can't stop thinking about the past, the things that I did that were bad, or the awful things that happened to me in the past. Most of this stuff happened a long time ago so why can't I just forget about them? My t and I went around my sex my dad used me for and a lot of the other stuff that had happened. I should be done with these issues now. Also I am getting paranoid. I keep thinking that something is going to happen to my husband or one of my children. So much more going in my mind I can't even sleep. I am tired all the time even when I do sleep. Because of my dad I have to have a night light in our bedroom isn't that crazy? I even worry about that, maybe I never grew up. Don't know what to do please some talk.

I am sorry you experienced such trauma in your childhood. You cannot just forget such terrible experiences. I'm not a therapist, but I do know that recovery from childhood trauma takes time. There are various evidence-based trauma treatments, including EMDR, that you might consider if you haven't already. I hope you feel better soon.

Hi SunBeem, I don't think it's unusual that you're still bothered by events like you describe. How difficult and traumatic it was/is! Glad to hear you are seeing a therapist. Are you finding it helpful? How about meds - are you on any? Just asking, not suggesting you need them... I'm 57 and struggle with things that happened when I was a child. Not nearly as traumatic as your experiences, but they still consume my thinking. I don't have any easy answers, just wanted to let you know that someone else cares! Hope you can work this out with your therapist.

Yes my therapist is great always there for me. Also I am taking anti-depression pills but sometimes I just seem to fall back into my awful me.

Could you please tell me what EMDR is? At this point I would do anything that would help.
