Life flashing before your eyes


Recommended Posts

Posted

Ever since the accident memories of my life, feelings, thought's, everything is like over a gradual process, and the best way to describe it is like my entire life, pieces are flashing before my eyes, not like a photo flash (PTSD flash backs actually look like a picture of that time in your life, like the movies depict)

This is pieces of my life, like my entire reality coming in waves to me. Not negative, not necessarily like that but just..

Please, has anyone ever heard of this.

I have heard it all psychologically, this doesn't fit anything well, I guess PTSD but it's, its not like painful always. It just is occurring and I don't know why.  

Help?

I used to get a lot of flashes from memories in my life when I was doing the carny circuit.  It would actually help to calm me down when I was doing really dangerous escape stunts.

happened to me all the time after my accident, eventually went away, but during periods of high stress (like my current situation) it can come back in flashes

Thank you so much for telling me that because, the night I posted this I was on a war path, I was terrified. I ended up that night making a decision to never, ever let myself get that freaked out. The unknown is fearful, I suppose I have to learn to let it just flow if I have it again. I am guessing this it is PTSD. I did mention this new thing to my family doctor and that is basically what he is dxing me with, I am not on anything for it, I know blood pressure meds are being used to treat PTSD and If it continues I will be in his office like, dude, give me some catapres, clonpodine, something!

I'm sorry you still deal with it but it sounds like you have a good hold on it.

      On a different note, I can't believe this month is half over already.

      ~~~~~ Wait, what? With as hot as it has been, that sounds like it would have been a great idea.  Or did it interfere with something?

      Wow, we had a brief power outage on Friday morning and I just now had time to boot my computer back up.  It has been a crazy time, but I did get my vehicle back Friday afternoon and new tires put on it Saturday morning.   After 2 years, finally got the AC repaired and the frame rewelded from last year's "repare".  These guys at Gratiot Auto Center: Chris P., Sevo and Damon...Lifesavers!!!   They used to be called Roseville Auto, but this is a new group because I didn't recognize anyone and they didn't have any records of working on my previous vehicle.  Also, there seems to be 2 shifts of workers because I didn't know anyone there today when I went to have the maintenance light turned off from the service that was completed Saturday.   It was literally like night and day.  Chris P. was laid back and handled things with a steady flow, Minnesota Fats style.  The guy today was rushed and hectic like an extra from Everybody Loves Raymond.
