frustrated
So I've been discussing this with my counsellor recently about how I can't take baths (literally; every time I think about having one I manage to set off a worse than usual panic attack). And it's not even me it's scaring, it seems to be one of my child alters that the emotion is coming from, only it's strong enough to set off my panic.
It's frustrating me. I don't like not knowing why this terrifies us, nor do I like the knowledge that there's probably nothing I can do about it. I have the memories of the abuse I went through, what's so different about this? Is it not as bad or the same as other memories? If so why can't I remember it? Is it worse? Not to sure how that's possible.
I suggested throwing myself into a bath and hoping that flashbacks would ensue to see if there was anything noteworthy of my fear of baths, but the counsellor said that wasn't a good idea and that I should just allow any memories to resurface if/when they do. It's driving me crazy not knowing though, anyone else felt like this before? Any advice on what I could do?

For those doubts that swirl all around us
For those lives that tear at the seams
We know… we’re not what we’ve seen
For this dance we’ll move with each other
There ain’t no other step than one foot
Right in front of the other
~ We're marching on... ~

Honey, thats a really bad idea. Like I said before, we will work through it together, and I will make notes. Have you asked Xander? He seems to know a lot about that stuff.
Its like unravelling string, if you try to do it too fast, you'll just get in a bigger mess than when you started. We love you so much and don't want that to happen for you.
Here every step and always, I promise.

Thank you for all the replies.
I know the whole "jump in the bath and screw the consequences" is a bad idea... although it's an appealing short term fix.

It's just... I know the worst of what's happened. Or part of the worst. But either way.. I don't see how it could be any more damaging than what I already know and that's what frustrates me the most. There's no reason for it to stay hidden.

I'm not sure what to say, hun. Though I can see and understand why not remembring is stressing you out. I hope you keep working things out with your counsellor. Stay safe. I'm always here if you wanna talk. *hugs* xo.
