[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you've led a very comfortable healthy life to get flustered by a couple of ER visits with stitches.  So I'd focus on that - you've been blessed for a long time.  Now your healthy streak took a pause, that's all.

If you don't like how your weekends are set up, change them. Do less. Say no to people. This is all in your control. [/quote]

Actually, 3 yrs ago I watched my mother suffer a massive stroke after years of her being sick and dealt with the aftermath of that until she died, in which I was in the room with her for. Blessed that I myself have been healthy, yes. But a comfortable life wouldn't exactly describe my life.  These were not minor stitches incidents. Both were on face, blood everywhere, not at home, rush to the ER type incidents with many follow up appointments. I feel like I was in fight or flight mode a lot in a small amt of time and am having trouble bouncing back. Thank you though for your reply.[/quote]

OP that must have been horrendous to suffer through.  The loss of a mother is life changing.  Have you ever considered individual therapy?  It must have been a whirlwind coming with that and two young children at the same time, and now I wonder if you are feeling triggered by these medical incidents in light of what you suffered through.[/quote]
