Of course, that's when you stop being busy, and there's nothing keeping the thoughts at bay. I wish there was an easy answer, but this is not an easy thing to work through. I don't know what your trauma was, but PTSD can last a very long time.

I've heard that meditation can help, but I've never mastered it. I use self hypnosis for pain management, but never tried it for stress.
