So I don't have T tonight. I'm really struggling. Yesterday I went to x-Pdoc's office to fill out release form for my therapist to get some info for me. The only problem is from the time I got off at the exit to the time I reached the xpress way again I had constant flashes of how bad off I was during my time with him. Some of it was pretty bad like the time I was cuffed to the stretcher thing and put in the ambulance and then restrained for quite a while in the general hospital I went to because I was so agitated I could not guarantee I wouldn't hurt myself. It's really freaking me out. I'm constantly trying to calm myself down, then I get worked up again, ten I get myself calmed down again, etcetera, etcetera. Should I ask T if I can see her today? I don't know what to do. It gets me really worked no matter what I do.

Jesus, that sounds horrendous cuffed to a stretcher?? restrained?? Wtf.

I definitely think you should ask for some help with this. Please contact your therapist. Even if she has a full booking sched today, she could maybe talk to you on the phone or something?

These sound like traumatic memories. Can you talk about them in T next time you see her?

That sounds terrible... I'm so sorry. If she can't get you in tonight, I wonder if she can give you a call and at least talk through some of this with you? Hang in there... and I hope you hear from your T soon...

Oh YAY! More work. We have some "trauma"(I don't feel it should be considered such but T does) work regarding those really bad years with x-pdoc. She said my reaction was like a very mild PTSD reaction to walking into the hospital and x-Pdoc's office. She said NOT to go get the records from the other 2 hospitals, most of my history will be found in the ones I already did the paperwork for.

So we shall see.

Good for you that you are seeking assistance and feeling like you are supported and open to the work. That is hard with trauma and I consider restraints traumatic. Many people are really opposed to them for very good reason. You seem to be managing it in a good healthy way. Coolness.

It's a lot of work to get and stay well but it sure beats where I was. So I'll take the work any day.
