Hey all,
This is my first post here ever. I'm a 44 year old guy who suffered many years of incest and physical abuse at the hands of an evil stepfather. Its nice to find a forum that specializes in Complex Trauma. PTSD is all the "rage" these days, but for those of us who have legitimate C-PTSD...the battle is likely MUCH harder.
Anyway....I'm wondering what some of you out there are doing to try to bring yourself out of a dissociative "episode"? How long do yours last? For me I can have one of these episodes last from hours to several days! Currently I'm trying to use any grounding techniques I can. Thanks for any info you all can provide!!!!
Keep on keeping' on my fellow warriors.
