      Are you currently working with a therapist that is trauma informed? It would be a good place to practice opening up about what might give you an attack. As long as you can afford it. I know it can be a struggle getting a therapist and paying for one. There is no time-line for healing. Even if it's been years, it's okay that you're still dealing with the aftermath. You have to go at your own pace.
