βI was right where you are not that long ago, about a year. Back then it was startling at loud noises. This morning I sang in the car. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.β
βFor whoever is where I was: I was right where you are two years ago. I remember startling at loud noises like it was yesterday. I wake up most days without that dread. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold. Be gentle with yourself.β
βPlease be gentle with yourself, I wasn't, and it made everything harder. Therapy took a few goes to find the right person and don't give up after one so and talk to someone, even if it's just in here.β
βI am not far ahead, but I want to say this: you are not crazy. Your body is trying to protect you, even if it feels wrong. Find one person who believes you. For me, it was my partner. She does not always understand, but she listens. And take small steps with the things that scare you. I still have nightmares, but I have more good days now. You can have them too.β
