I was hopping that at the beginning of this year I would be feeling better. Unfortunately, that isn't the case at all. I thought that taking a break from everything would help, but all I know was that it wasn't enough. Trying to push myself back into being a functioning person isn't working. Strangely, it seems that the more time I take away, the more time I need to take.

I hopped that trying to keep my mind away from everything that happened 2 years ago that the flashbacks & nightmares would stop haunting me. Trying to find things I enjoy doing that keep my mind busy should work but for some reason, those visions are strong enough to push their way in no matter what.

I wanted to pop in here & wish that everyone had a nice Christmas/Holiday/New Years. I guess for me, this time of year on top of everything that happened 2 years ago at this time ends up being more than I can actually handle. I know that everyone says that as time passes & as there becomes a distance from what happened, flashbacks & nightmares will lessen.

I hope that the New year will be a good one for all.

Sorry to hear you are still having a difficult time. Even though time can heal certain wounds, there is a certain amount of effort we need to put in, to make that a reality. I know it's not easy to do. Maybe there are certain things that you haven't quite come to terms with yet that keep bringing on the flashbacks and nightmares.

I hope you can find some peace very soon hon. Many hugsssssssssssssssssssssssss

Keep going as you're going and hopefully things will continue to get easier for you. You went through some tough things and recovery can't happen all at once but at least you're being realistic about it.
