Has anyone wrote a trauma timeline before? Or just wrote about their trauma in general? I don't really know where to start
Nope. Sounds like hell to me
I just want to feel like I'm doing something and I've heard from other people that it's something they'll ask me to do in therapy anyway.
It's not something I have ever been asked to do and it's not something I would even attempt without having therapy in place first... but that's just me..
I've written a few brief things here, but never the full amount or in a timeline...
Why are you trying to second guess what will happen in therapy? Every therapist has a different way of working and it will also vary based on what they think is right for you. I don’t see the point putting yourself through this if you don’t have the support in place should you need it.
I just don't know what else I'm supposed to do for myself
Sweetheart give yourself time. Maybe start with writing a list to show your Dr?
It seems I'm going to he a while off from speaking to a therapist. I don't have anyone to talk to, I figure writing would be the next best thing to get the thoughts out of my head. I'm fed up of feeling so sh**ty
While that would normally be a good way forward for some, with trauma it’s different and, as Suzi has suggested, doing that without the support of a GP or therapist might not benefit you
Have you thought about self referral specialist therapy options?
