Since discovery and/or disclosure of my partner’s betrayal…
I feel unsafe, especially with him/her/them.
My mind continues to ruminate, and I lose concentration.
My mind is racing when I go to bed, and I have trouble sleeping.
My mind feels flat and shut down, and it is difficult to get out of bed.
I have horrific nightmares and wake up with exhaustion.
I need his/her/their comfort, but he/she/they are the enemy.
My body feels unsafe.
I sometimes feel like I’am reliving discovery/disclosure.
My brain keeps replaying what has happened and I feel powerless over stopping/controlling these thoughts.
I’m hypervigilant, and I jump at every little noise or trigger, always on guard.
I don’t feel safe anywhere outside my home.
Since discovery/disclosure, I feel alone, even with my best friends and family.
I’m terrified friends and/or my family will find out about my partner’s betrayal.
I feel significant shame.
I no longer trust my intuition or people, I have lost faith in humanity.
I feel nauseous and have no appetite.
I’m losing weight and it is becoming noticeable.
I can’t make myself stop investigating his/her/their actions.
My emotions are volatile and I have no control of the way I feel.

Since D-Day, I get triggered everywhere I go, especially if my husband/wife/partner is with me.
