How do you explain to a new partner or friend for that matter that when they make sudden movements and you jerk away it's not them it's just reflex to past trauma? My friend was shocked that I thought he'd ever hit me but I tried to explain it wasn't him. I don't think I got my point across right

      If I trust them, I'll explain some of the trauma. But even after 3 years with my partner I don't always react the way a normal would.

        @PibblesandTea thank you, some times I feel crazy and I even tell the person sorry I know it's crazy to respond this way. It's habit and some people just don't get it
