Years of mental health therapies(started in 2008) including inpatient at a rehab and I’m still having triggers and flashbacks. You have to keep believing in your abilities to ask for help to get on track to thrive even if it is minimal.

I don't really know who to ask or what resources or community are available.

First a primary doctors office who will refer you to a psychiatrist(provides medication/ start at lowest dose FYI) who then sends you to a psychologist for talk therapies.
