PTSD and Trauma recovery

I've had some breakthroughs seeing and remembering what happened. It's like getting it out of my system. What bother me though, is constantly being tired and sleeping a lot. I wonder if this is normal after holding it in so many years.

I don't think its unusual, to need more rest, when we have been subjected to stress.

I totally get the needing more rest thing. These traumas are in our bodies as well as in our minds and as they exit our bodies need extra rest to heal.

I could use a nap right now in fact!
