Hugs, Wave. Have you ever done any talk therapy specifically focused on surviving domestic violence? I know the resources out there are mostly for women, so it might be hard to find. But your spiral there reminded me more of when Mr. Star sees a car that looks like his ex girlfriend’s car. It did not remind me of your usual psychosis spirals.
I also get paranoid with cars parked right outside my house. I sometimes think their criminals watching my house to see if it’s a good option to break into at night.
It can be hit or miss. I know that even for myself, I had to mark myself as female to get access to domestic violence therapy resources. Mr. Star only gets good PTSD therapy because he is a war veteran.
