This said, I think it important that you tell your parents what is going on and see if you can get in to see a therapist about it so you can sort out the dreams and hopefully resolve it. Take care. Keep us posted on how you are doing.

I'm a mum of 3 and have these seizures 5-6 times a day. Does anyone else suffer from this and are there any techniques I can use to try and help my self? I want my kids to have their mummy back and my husband to have his wife back.
Avatar f tn Sounds like post-traumatic stress disorder with flashbacks of the traumatic episode being the leading the symptom. You should seek out a medical professional and get the help needed for it.
Avatar f tn What you have is probably PTSD or post traumatic stress disorder. The assessment and diagnosis is made on basis of Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS). It is treated with antedepressants and psychotherapy. A MRI of brain should be done to see whether this is due to traumatic brain injury or not. The cognitive impairment could just be due to concussion which at times persists for years and all of a sudden disappears. This does not have any long term complications.

Avatar f tn Yesterday and today Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has been associated with any traumatic event which leaves the witness/participant with feelings of helplessness. There are several definitions for PTSD however, I believe the most accurate is: PTSD is an emotional injury based on a catastrophic event.
Avatar n tn My husband has been diagnosed with BPD and post traumatic stress disorder. He does not believe that he has either, although he has taken a variety of meds. in the past to treat his symptoms of anxiety, depression, and chronic insomnia. He has not taken anything for years though. Ultimately he is a good man but I must say that living with him is a bit of hell on Earth. I love him and try to pour out large doses of compassion, but after ten years, I am exhausted and sucked dry.
