You want to forget, but you can’t

Something terrible happened to you and you are angry. But you feel ashamed and confused why this happened. You wonder what you did to deserve this. You have tried to forget and move on with your life, but the memories and the nightmares will not stop. It seems that no matter how hard you try to forget and move on the memories return.

You try to work and enjoy times with friends and family but you keep seeing what happened replay in your head over and over again. You ask, “Why can I not just control my mind?” However, you cannot shake the feeling that this terrible thing is happening again and again.

You wonder why you cannot just move on. You feel scared and worried that something terrible will happen again.

You survived but feel like a victim

This terrible thing you experienced has a name, it is called trauma.

If you have experienced a trauma, you feel guilty and angry. You want to know why it happened, so you blame yourself. You often feel stressed, irritable, ashamed, and frustrated.

What happened was not your fault

A trauma can happen to anyone. A trauma is any terrible, scary, and overwhelming event that causes you to feel like your body and your life, or the life of someone you love, is in very serious danger. Trauma causes your body and your mind to be in state of stress and fear and this makes it very hard to calm down, relax, and think about more positive things. 💬
