I went to blockbuster today. While looking for a movie a guy came and asked me if I had any suggestions. I told him of one and he kept hanging around me while I looked for a movie. I didnt really think too much of it. Then he wouldnt leave me alone but it just didnt bother me at the time I thought he was friendly. He constantly kept coming around and bringing up conversations. Since healing a great much from ptsd, Ive begun to trust again. But after I left I started feeling very bad, my stomach started hurting and I thought I might throw up. Im on edge and cant settle down. I dont know why Im feeling this way. I developed ptsd because of sexual abuse but Idk if this has to do with it. Idk. Ive had peace and happiness for a while now. Now I feel suspicious and am starting to withdraw. It wasnt even a big deal idk why im acting this way. And Ive been healing for a couple years now.
Sounds like this guy SHOULD have given you a bad feeling. Having PTSD, that feeling needed to be noticed and affirmed. It doesn't mean you're going backwards, it means the guy was a creep and your intuition (or gut - hence the stomach ache/nausea) knew it! Hang in there. Next time, pay attention and maybe don't be SO nice!
