YA, been there and done it myself... I know what your going through, because I did break, several times actually, going through getting my PTSD out.

There is no time limit on this, hence why you control it. I would only say to not give it up, but instead have a month off, allow yourself to see improvement again if you need, then go at it again. Just remember YA, you control how much you expose yourself. When it really hurts, as your now finding out, you take a break, then hit it again when you have calmed.

Your doing just fine... just don't give it away, because your seeing benefits, and your going to see more when your mind and body calm this time.
