tough day today

I had a tough session in group therapy today. One of the women talked about having been given electroshock treatment, and she started crying talking about how it made her lose memory.

Now, I'm something of an emotional resonator - when someone I'm near is upset, I start feeling it too, but what happened next was much worse.

I started having flashbacks.

By the time I got home, I was no longer able to fight off tears, and wished I had someone to hold me while I shook.

Ah, well.
