I remember you posting about feeling guilty that you’d survived - “Why me?”

Why not you?

Weirdly although I experienced some horrendous ICU delirium- I didn’t get what I considered tradition PTSD.

If you are still getting flashbacks & invasive thoughts - ask your GP about EMDR or CBT therapy.

We survived a torture - that does not mean we should remain tortured!!!

Wishing you a peaceful 2024
