I asked my IC yesterday about the numbness. Why haven't I felt any rage against H? I feel almost nothing- I think I must be doing a good job of burying it. She thinks I may need post----- (something, was it "traumatic" or something else- I don't remember) counseling latet. Have to get through this first...
PTSD: Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Absolutely. That is really to be expected with what you've been coping with. The IC will help with you that. You are doing great though! Don't worry about birthdays and stuff yet. One day at a time!
Take care. Google PTSD and domestic abuse and you will get lots of info.
