panic attack....

this happened yesterday morning but i've only just been able to talk about it as it shook me up really badly. I've calmed down now.

I had taken my son to work on Sunday morning, I turned into our village and a car which was going the other way passed me and the man inside was the double of my abuser. I went cold, hot, cold and started to tremble. The thing is,, I'd spoken to my mother the night before and asked her to give me some time away from her to think and sort my head out(she was having an affair with my abuser and she has a lot to do with my issues)last time I had group therapy and mentioned his name, my mum had a call from him(so she says, more like she called him)i had threatened him with the police.
I am paranoid now, but this man looked the image of him only older. I came home and was really upset and my husband kept telling me it wouldn't be him, it couldn't be. He has been wanted by the police for a number of years, it probably wan't him but I was shaken anyway. I'ts taken me this long to post as I just tried to put it out of my mind.

sorry to rant, just needed it out.

Jin, I have not had your experience, but I want you to know I have read your post and I am sending positive thoughts your way.

It's ok to feel that way- my attacker was my brother and every day comming home from school I would have panic attacks--- even now I wonder if he would come back and do the same to my children - at least ur husband is understanding- mine just tells me to get over it

ONE DAY AT A TIME-

thankyou so much for your replies I really appreciate them, you'll never know.....

sending love and hugs, Jinny xoxoxoxoxox
