PTSD

Hi all. I’m so lucky to say that my chemo is over and that I just need to see my doc/go to the hospital where I had treatment every few months. I had a visit yesterday and realize that I probably have full scale PTSD from the trauma of this whole experience. I am a therapist myself, but I was overwhelmed by my reaction to just being there. I didn’t get any bad news at my appt yesterday and it’s not that I fear news very much because I’ve had all good reports for the last 10 months or so. It’s just so triggering to me to see the same spaces again. I feel like maybe I didn’t process the experience itself enough or something? Do any of you get these feelings in treatment settings or similar ‘cancer related’ places?
