I just had a bad panic attack - memories of that time returned.
I tried to show myself that my surroundings looked different. That I was home and safe but it did not work that well. I feel bad - like I should feel thankful. But I feel the opposite... And guilty because of this. Maybe it will go away on it's own again over time. I don't know if I can handle meeting with a mental health professional - I am scared of it. Therapy scares me. It makes me feel like they have control over my life. Not me. And also I am tired of being judged. Like I got many times. I don't want to tell my whole story here. Now chunks of memories of that time are resurfacing. I feel like I am not allowed to call this trauma. Or people will tell me to not overreact and to be thankful. That this is not valid. I trust my psychiatrist - it will be awful probably to meet him in terms of anxiety but I am trying to tell myself he is different. And has treated me well unlike the rest. I feel so awful for hating these people. They just help. So I should love them for what they do and appreciate their work. I just can't. I am scared to open up. For letting one in. Maybe I can erase the hate (through therapy) But I feel like the hate is also protecting me... Even if it makes me feel guilty. I am not a hateful person neither angry. But lately I feel like that changed. And I hate myself for it. I am scared I am really overreacting like they told me. And I am wrong in feeling the way I do. I talked to a friend who also told me that place has added to her trauma - but she has been through so much worse than me. I just feel like I never left that place. I feel alone with this but deep down I highly suspect am not and that is saddening. Nobody talks about this... Like a taboo. Mental and general hospital were horrible experiences for me... The forced treatment mostly. Everything that happened now fuels my ED. |
