I have complex trauma

[Happygabby]

this video makes me want to cry. i have all these symptoms and people always act like i’m just not trying hard enough when in reality it’s taking everything i have in me sometimes just to show up. i wish everyone could see and understand this 😢

I can’t decipher between CPTSD and ADHD. I just know I feel double f*cked.

omg the conversations! UGHHHH MAKE IT
I genuinely wonder if people ruminate like me cause it’s so tiresome

At bed time I fall asleep listening to cd’s of my favorite speaker. If I don’t do this, then the thinking begins, the worries, the fears.

Dude! I had that. My parents are both raging narcissists. I stopped though. I go to the gym to work out. The weight off my shoulders is immense.

Some psychologists don’t recognize complex trauma. It took a very good counselor to recognize this and help me through it. Sometimes with complex trauma you try really hard to look like you’re functioning “normal” but it’s a huge facade and lonely place to be with your fears at the end of the day.

You didn't have to describe me like that .

I’m so happy that it is ok to express your feelings, pain, anxiety etc. I read a quote the other day about keeping the peace by not saying anything, but who is the peace keeping for! It knocked me over realizing all these years every evil deed someone did to me and my mom telling me too get over it was only helping her and her man have peace. Not any more I need peace.

I have CPTSD and after 15 years of therapy this video just made me realize I have had complex trauma symptoms since early childhood. Thanks!! Gonna dive in and work on it.

I have about 2 1/2 years of my life erased from my memory from trauma 😊

I have complex trauma and all of these maladaptive behaviours resonate 😢

I honestly can't tell you how much your shorts has helped me reflect on myself and the relationships around me.

The making urself sick part is so real, my immune system is so fucked up bcs of it, I’m literally sick rn bcs I stressed myself out

[jmackey]

I'd be interested in a video talking about the differences between complex trauma and ADHD, because all of these symptoms are also applicable to ADHD and now I'm wondering...

Oh my gosh the looping of conversations in my head drives me insane sometimes! These videos always hit home for me

[cck]

I will say that knowing that's what I have has done a lot to improve the situation. FINALLY! ❤

I got trauma, so I learned to do things that love myself, like warm baths, quiet nature walks, deep breaths, and eat organic when possible so I’m not aggravating my system with caffeine, or toxic chemicals that can exzasserbate my nerves:))love thyself

[nurseandgod]

I love that you’re educating us on traumas. I have learned so much about myself from your videos. I’ve always just thought there was something wrong with me.

[sjxveru]

your posts really hit home with me.
Thank You

I am not my mistakes, just like I am not my thoughts. Meditation can bring a tiny bit of space between obnoxious, unhelpful thoughts so we can just OBSERVE them. By observing, we don't engage and make the thought bigger. Observing a thought helps let it go. ❤
