I was told by my therapist that I have ptsd... I was abused back in February (keeping it vague, as to not trigger anyone)
But I got triggered this morning, intensely. I'm trying my best to keep it together. I'm a stay at home mom of 2 and currently 6 months pregnant.
It's nearly impossible for me not to be extremely emotional right now.
I wish I had a babysitter for my kids, but unfortunately, I dont.
So my question, how do I make this stop???
What do I do with everything I'm feeling right now??? It has to stop so I don't start crying again. I can't start having an anxiety attack right now.

Do something that soothes you, I know it is hard if you have two little ones to look after. How old are they?

Read, nap, yoga, hot bath, meditation, jigsaw puzzles, exercise, and most importantly, deep breathing!

They are 4 and 1. To be 5 and 2 in Dec.
I got them down for nap time, and I felt better. I think just getting that pressure off made me feel more at ease and more comfortable. Thank you so much!!

Aw thank you! I might take you up on that
And I'm not sure if there is anything I can do, but if you ever need to talk or anything, feel free to message me
