Hi to the ladies on here especially. I have a problem with 2 looped nightmares. Can anyone shed any light on why I keep getting them, they lead to flashbacks in the day. These are them: 1 is to do with miscarriage and birth and the other one is to do with being pursued by my 1st attacker. Is this usual if you have PTSD? How do I switch them off? They cause pain attacks, shortness of breath and nausea type feelings. I am starting to get quite scared, the more counselling I have the worse the feelings are getting. The other thing is can it make you physically I'll, please help I'm struggling!
