Hi everyone,
I can't stop the flashbacks. I went to bed early tonight because i have to get up early for work. I woke up to get something to drink and go to the bathroom. I went back to bed and closed my eyes and BOOM! There it was. Flashback central. I have been good about not having them lately. Things have been good here. I am steady back at work, and have been feeling relativlely good. But tonight they started again. I can't go back to sleep. Am so scared. I don't know what to do. These are new ones. I mean I have been thinking a little about this situation and said to myself that it was resolved a long time ago...which is about 7 or 8 years ago. Does anyone have flashbacks from when they were an early adult or is it just me acting crazy again? Help me please. I tried calling a friend. This is something i can't talk to my family about. I mean the last ones were pretty bad and they know about me being hurt by men, and I mean in the sex way. But this is different...not the same as far as men go. I certainly don't trust anyone...not even women anymore. Nothing happened today either to trigger this. I don't know what to do. I try and tell myself that it happened and i dealt with it, and it's over with. I just can't stop it. My mind is racing and can't stop the thoughts. As I am typing this the memories keep coming and coming and coming. I see it happening, and I can't stop it. Thanks for listening.  to all of you!

somtimes trying to stop flashbacks makes it worse - try writing it all down to get it out of you head - I had some memories come back recently from when I was about 5 or 6 - so no you are not alone and if you are crazy - then I am too.... although..... that's probalby true! some of my friedns tell me Im crazy LOL
 Dstraction techniques are what are good her e- sorry Im a bit disjointed today - over tired - put ice in your hands - make a really really strong cup of coffe and take a big sip - urgh! Repeat whilst walkii ng up and down I am safe - or if you cant believe that - say callm and relaxed whilst walking - I pace a lot - if you have a pet/husband/wife/child/ give them a hug, I hope things settle for you soon take care P7
