I was raped years ago, but recently attacked at work by a male patient. The attack was not sexual, just physical. I started having recurrent dreams of the rape. I can.t sleep. I wake up profusely sweating and shaking. I am unable to have sex with my partner, I have such anxiety just thinking of it. Any comments that would help me will be appreciated. To Make matters worse, my twin sister died in March, and I am sinking so deep into depression. Because of my job, and questions on renewal of lic. I am fearful of seeking treatment. When you are investigated for jobs now, it might show up that I was treated for a mental disorder.
