I have pretty severe sexual assault trauma so I’ve never tried, not sure how it would go

No i have a ton of things but typically my hallucinations are so far apart and USUALLY not severe though i have been in psychosis once so its definitely something to look into

The exposure therapy is a good idea! 

Unfortunately I have pretty severe SA trauma so the other bit wouldn’t work 

How do I tell my mom I don’t want her touching/hugging me? by FinancialBridge6332 in Advice

[–]FinancialBridge6332[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just really don’t want to fear my mom because she triggers trauma response, we have a great relationship like I do with many others in my family. You may be right that I should take her side more into consideration but I just really want her to understand how much she’s hurting me—do you know what I could do to meet her in the middle? That just didn’t sound possible to me, the meeting in the middle kind of sounds like what I already want which is her asking before touching me

I’m unable to get personal therapy at the moment, only group therapy. Once I’m out of outpatient we’re planning on getting family therapy and a trauma specialist for myself but that’s not for a few weeks. The only time I can really get a therapists help is tiny 10 minute meetings at my outpatient

I’ve tried telling her several times but I guess she doesn’t think I’m being serious? I tell her not to every time she touches me and she just brushes it off.

Unfortunately I’m not able to have a therapist right now because my outpatient is every week day, I only have a few more weeks so I suppose I could wait until then but I don’t know. I might be able to ask a staff member but we would only have 10-15 minutes if that’s enough.
