Is this normal?!

Is this normal?

I went through a tramatic thing a few nights ago. Namely I was attacked by a dog and bitten on the calf and thigh. I spent about four hours in the ER and am fine. BUt I am finding it hard to sleep because every time I shut my eyes and start to doze off, I relive the attack. It is like a flash back or something. it is so real. I find myself fending off a dog that isn't there. My hubby is concerned and his sleep is also being disrupted as he feels he must help me. He is the one who beat the dog off of me and feels very protective right now. Any one have any suggestions on how to handle this? Will it go away soon? I am not afraid of dogs and have two of my own. It wasn't one of ours that attacked me but our nieghbors dog that got loose and was in our yard so we have proof that it has had all of it's shots ect. So I am not facing rabies shots or anything like that. Any advise?

The dog was destroyed the next morning. It was a pitbull/rottweiller mix and was huge. frankly I am lucky to be alive. My hubby had to beat it off me with a shovel. I had to stitches and am very bruised. Thank you all.

I feel for you sister!
Ask the Goddess to help you.
Perhaps you need to cast a spell for protection to make yourself FEEL safe again.....
If you need help with this just give me a shout!
