A few yrs ago, I had a bad experience of being mentally ill, I have bi polar and what happened was really a long story, but it left me with PTSD. If I try to explore even a bit of what happened to me it brings all those frightening things back and I get upset. I cant go there any more though I always get that feeling of wanting to make sense of what happened- now that I am not sick any more- but cant. It's too hard. Yet like typical PTSD, things trigger it when I am not even wanting to go back there. What things do people who suffer from it too do, to not feel upset every time?
