Mom Anxiety attack, possible ptsd
Mom is having a flashback? Of when she was sexually assaulted when she was younger. She puts herself in that place and doesn't recognize anyone around her, or speaking. When this has happened before sometimes she asks for an animal (we have dogs) or hyperventalates. She's made herself go limp before and I called ems. I need advice on how to handle this.

I suggest you to fix an appointment with a psychological counselor for her, and help her to share her feelings and emotions as a vent out.
It light be helpful for her to come out of this issue permanently
Next Steps
