I have PTSD and am highly dissociative and a history of trauma, but because I have no visual memory, CSA is hard to substantiate. It's just a nagging gut thing-a preoccupation-like it's part of every cell of my body. My parents clam up when I dig for information about my early childhood. My siblings look/treat me like I am a loon, but I am well acquainted with the Emperor and his new clothes...
I wonder if repressed :confused: CSA has a component of terror to it. My strongest emotion when I dissociate is of absolute terror. Can anyone relate?
 
Forth,

Feelings of dread and terror would fit in perfectly with dissociation in a case of CSA. I know that as a boy the main reason I dissociated in the first place was because I was so terrified of what was about to happen to me.

Are you in therapy for these issues? It really would be a good idea to have some professional guidance as you search for the truth behind your problems. A good T will help you seek the answers you want while at the same time protecting you from new pain and trauma.

Much love,
Larry
 
Hi Forth,

I recently went on a website for recovering prostitutes and found an excellent article on PTSD.

I found a few articles that were helpful to me on this site. Hopefully others can benefit from it.

Aloha, Sunny
