In anticipating some vacation this coming week, I realize how difficult it is these days for me to relax in any sustained way. Contemplating even four days of vacation makes me really anxious. For me, often relaxation leads to flashbacks. As my body relaxes, it wants to release more. I have things I do daily to try to proactively allow space for that to happen. But, even with all that, I still feel really worried and that translates into stress for my family as well. Have others experienced this and, if so, how have you handled it?
