Aphrodite,
I'm really sorry you are having such a hard time. I know those really tough nights so well--where the old memories are over whelming and the pictures so clear. Talking about it really triggers it off for me too...
I hope you are getting extra support right now. It is important that you keep telling yourself that just because this woman acted like you were making conscious choices doesn't mean any of this is your fault. It must have been so hard to make yourself say all of it to a stranger. My therapist is very gentle when we talk about this stuff because he says that forcing it can be like a retraumatization. That sounds like what has happened to you.
Keep processing the feelings. Don't pull inside and hide. Please keep posting. I'll be around all weekend.
