I've done the quiz a few times, and I'm always confused by the meaning of this question:

I often have disturbing dreams or recollections about something that happened in my life.

Does it mean that you have disturbing dreams and then separately have recollections about something that happened, or that the dreams AND(or) the recollections both relate to something the happened?

I ask because I have a lot of disturbing dreams, but they're not related (that I know of) to anything that has happened in my life. So I'm never sure quite how to answer this question.

Thanks!

I interpret it as "dreams or recollections" being together, related to something else that actually happened. I think it's a simpler idea of "flashbacks" to a traumatic experience.
