Question: 

Why do I keep having horrible nightmares where I'm being physically beat up & attacked by the affair partner & all the prostitutes my husband has been with. My spouse is a sex addict & working on recovery in a 12-step group & doing well but I am so overwhelmed with the intrusive thoughts & nightmares. I'm so sad.
