[QUOTE="Jena, post: 202764, member: 4514"] Trinity thanks that is a very creative way of handling it. I'm actually very impressed by the amount of thought you must of put into that to process, shelf, than bring it down again. wow. i did a similar thing actually myself to get through the brunt of the flashbacks, nightmares, and memories when they were in full force some 6 mos. ago. yet the biggest issue i have now with it is the anxiety that can heighten without fore warning on me and controlling it when it does. there are days i handle it better than others. this past friday out of the blue i woke up and had a panic attack pretty bad actually. now difficult child had gotten into school late as usual and for the most part i decided it was the day that i wouldnt' push through it so i sat my butt on my couch and stayed there watching some new show starter wife to re engage myself back into reality mode. it took some time to accomplish yet once i did i was so very grateful i was able to pick up difficult child like i do everyday and than go to park on swings iwth her for hours after school and even a playdate. yet i hate to lose days like that. i think well therapist and i both think it's the days in which i'm not on the go that it hits when i need to be calm with myself. being alone with me is very hard. i totally love me, no really i do lol i make myself laugh alot and i often talk to myself as well yet my therapist says since this all came out only 6 mos ago my quiet moments with me just aren't what they used to be. guess everything just takes time........i wish you continued luck and success on your road :) sounds like your doing a great job [/QUOTE]
