i think what shocked me most was the 'random' trigger and the size of the reaction it provoked!

it's a seriously complex and complicated thing, and long story short - she does have a say in it, unfortunately.

but i'm doing better now - i guess you could say back down to my 'usual' amount of flashbacks.

i went thru a 'period' last year where i was 'too the point' of considering wearing a hard-hat while i was driving. aka - protecting my head from the "next" incident. but i realize how that sounds and didn't want to be 'that bad', even though the thoughts are already there in my head! i also don't want to be that afraid of the 'random', even fully aware that my recent two brain injuries (including my car-crash) came from 'seemingly random' things. but that's the trauma in me, isn't it?!?
