Questions

1. Have you ever experienced traumatic or frightening events in your life which still significantly affect you now? Do these memories come up repeatedly without warning, feel uncontrollable and cause a strong emotional response?

2. Is this the problem that you want help with now? Would you like the opportunity to work on this now?

3. Do you ever find yourself zoning out when you are under stress?

4. Do you notice an inability to recall events in your life that seems too extensive to be forgetfulness?

5. Do you ever lose significant amounts of time not due to alcohol or drugs?

6. Do you ever find yourself in places but do not remember going there? If so, does this happen often or for long absences?

If you answered no to these questions, but you have any other concerns; please do get in touch.
