Still having flashbacks

Whitney • Wife (5/20/17). Christian. Mommy to Ryleigh (8/08/18). 👨‍👩‍👧

So I keep getting triggered and having nightmares and flashbacks from my sexual assault 5 years ago. It’s affecting my sleep, and it’s affecting the sexual relationship I have with my husband.

Last night was really bad. I tried to sleep, but had flashback nightmares all night. So at like 3am, I said screw it and stayed awake. To keep myself awake, I spent 4 hours deep cleaning our apartment. I am really struggling. 😔
