Page 43 - Yes, YOU Can
P. 43
For over a year, I took my CDs with me when I
traveled… just in case. I did not need them. That
phase was over.
As most people do, I have a nightmare occasionally.
I usually fall asleep as soon as I put my head on my
pillow and sleep soundly. I wake up refreshed.
Some Brain Hemisphere synchronization
recordings from Centerpointe are now available on
Youtube. I don’t know if they are as effective as the
CDs, but it’s a start. Use headphones.
Flashbacks
Let’s talk about flashbacks. I wonder if this is why
therapists warn people that they will never
completely heal from PTS(D). You never know
when one of those flashbacks will be triggered.
They can be provoked by a light, a sight, a sound, a
smell, a state of mind…
One of the first flashbacks I remember having
happened when I found myself at the same level of
tiredness I had experienced when I was
incarcerated, as we were kept in a state of sleep
deprivation.
