i was wondering if it was possible to develop trauma from having an episode with your mental illness. this june i had an extreme ocd flare up and it was easily the worst time of my life. everytime i see something or smell something that reminds me of that time it makes me feel as if im in that period again

@funnyDog8378 It seems natural to be traumatized by especially dark or difficult periods, regardless of whether distress was generated without or within the mind. What sorts of things remind you of that time? What things do you remember when this happens? (if you don't mind sharing, of course <3)
