Some guy ran a red light and slammed into me. I did not know what was happening until my car stopped spinning. When it stopped I never moved. It was just like the frozen/dissociated state that happens to me in therapy. Everyone coming over opening the doors, asking me questions and I am can not respond. Except the the uncontrollable shaking. Fireman, Paramedics wondering if my lack of emotion and response was head injury? No just me not being normal.

In the ambulance one of the Paramedics asked if I was ever diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. I answered that. Offered to take me to the hospital. I refused.

This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.

I'm so sorry this happened to you. I had a similar accident years ago. A person ran a stop sign. The impact spun my car around & it took out a light pole backwards. I wasn't hurt in the crash. But the next day I was stiff as a board from head to toe. You may well be too. It sounds like you weren't injured physically at least... something to be thankful for.
