went to gyne dr yesterday. bad. he had a female student with him. i didn't know she was going to do exam too! triggered memory of abuse with ex-gyne dr. even though they both were nice. but something made it all come back
and all kinds of other things.
a bit better today, but body feelings are really still bad.
yesterday i c*t, i still want to today, but my T saw me and i said i'd try to get through till she sees me tomorrow.
this is harder than i thought...i just want to stop the body feelings.

I'm so sorry that happened to you. Can you do something with your hands to keep you busy and your mind off of it?

Maybe color, or paint, or play in the garden. That way you're soothing the littles too.

This is cool to do.

Maybe you need to write your feelings out like you did before. That helped you some.

You take good care of yourself, naomi.
I'm proud of you for coming here and sharing.

I'm sorry you had to go through that.

Petunia has given you some good advice. That mandalas site is very relaxing.

We are here if you need to talk.

I like ideas listed so far and can add that sometimes taking long showers or baths helps me when I'm triggered. Wrapping up in a blanket and reading a good book can help me too.

Mostly just want to say that I hear you and wish you well as you move through this.

Best wishes to you.

sorry this happened to you white Iris. I both hate and like it when I remeber a past memory. On the one side it hurst so much but yet on thether once the memory is remembered its now a part of my normal memories so I no longer act out that piece of memory. Hang in there. it will get better.

those gynie exams can be hard for us survivors

Just remember that you ARE survivors

We might have had to go to extremes to survive, like our alters all splitting off, but you did survive to be here with us now.
