Setting good personal boundaries is critical to creating healthy relationships, increasing self- esteem and reducing stress, anxiety and depression. Boundaries protect your personal self by setting a clear line between what is me and what is not me. This isn’t an excuse to be negligent to others. It is simply about protecting your own liberty and values #boundaries #abuseawareness #abuse #brokenrelationships #partners #leadership #work https://www.instagram.com/p/COYt2-zDFly/?igshid=1ouzyou6yrag

https://www.ournutsandbolts.com/ Healing from Trauma bonds - Grief is a fog; a thick, dense, and never ending barrier between you and the world as you once knew it. You figured it would eventually lift, as fog tends to do, but after days and then weeks spent under its heavy cloak, you begin to wonder if it’s become a part of your everyday life. In those moments, you might have thought, “All I want is to feel better,”  because you want to feel normal, whatever that may mean to you. Yet the simplicity of a ‘normal’ existence seems unfathomable.   Impossible even. Then one day you look around and realize you can see a little further in front of you, things are more colorful, and they’re coming into clarity.   The days start getting a little bit easier, the nights a little more restful.   The tears come a little less and things like laughter, joy, and gratitude are once again a part of your emotional repertoire.  The smallest sliver of light cuts into the dark and you realize that this must be what ‘healing from grief’ looks like. #narcissisticabuse #onyourown #traumabond #cptsd #grief #selfworth #depression #love #hope #truth #forgiveness #mentalhealth #ournutsandbolts https://www.instagram.com/p/CFr4p8IjAr4/?igshid=depkh3uehfu0

https://www.ournutsandbolts.com/ How to support someone with Depression... Your support and encouragement can play an important role in your loved one’s recovery. If someone you love is depressed, you may be experiencing any number of difficult emotions, including helplessness, frustration, anger, fear, guilt, and sadness. These feelings are all normal. It’s not easy dealing with a friend or family member’s depression. And if you neglect your own health, it can become overwhelming. That said, your companionship and support can be crucial to your loved one’s recovery. You can help them to cope with depressions symptoms, overcome negative thoughts, and regain their energy, optimism, and enjoyment of life.

REASONS PEOPLE START THERAPY 1. To not let my past dictate my future. To not live in fear 2. To confront my anxiety and heal wounds from relationships 3. I just needed to talk to someone https://www.ournutsandbolts.com/ Many people don’t seek therapy until things have become so unmanageable that they can no longer function properly. Somewhere in the craziness of life, we have stopped listening to our bodies, minds, and spirits when they tell us we are doing too much, or that our lifestyle is not sustainable. Whether you’re looking for a quick(ish) fix to a bad habit, anxiety issue, or phobia, or you’re just interested in some serious soul-searching (“What’s my life’s purpose?” “Why do I keep doing ____ in romantic relationships?”) there’s a therapy that’s waiting for you. #depression #grief #anxiety #addiction #sexuality #love #truth #hope #forgiveness #therapy https://www.instagram.com/p/CEEaqbyjE4k/?igshid=hez4lt06batm

https://www.ournutsandbolts.com/ FRIENDS Sometimes for a lifetime, sometimes for a short time, our friendships are among the most valuable relationships we have. We gain in various ways from different friendships. We may talk to friends in confidence about things we wouldn’t discuss with our families. Our friends may annoy us, but they can also keep us going. Friendship is a crucial element in protecting our mental health. We need to talk to our friends and we want to listen when our friends want to talk to us. Our friends can keep us grounded and can help us get things in perspective. It is worth putting effort into maintaining our friendships and making new friends. Friends form one of the foundations of our ability to cope with the problems that life throws at us. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDl-LuSl8kt/?igshid=1l33eoj7rhv6w

https://www.ournutsandbolts.com/ Why knowing yourself is so important.... Before you even attempt to discover someone else, take the time to understand yourself. Your needs. Your wants. Your desires. Your triggers. Two exceptionally important things about any dynamic are the ability to communicate and the setting of limits. If you do not understand yourself, you will never be able to communicate your needs to another. If you don’t understand your own triggers, then you will never be able to set your own soft and hard limits. Take the time to get to know you, before trying so hard to get to know another. The investment in self, will return amazing dividends for your future. #introspection #mindfulness #humility #wisdom #trauma #love #truth #hope #forgiveness #ournutsandbolts https://www.instagram.com/p/CDjO9--lSWK/?igshid=1xcrrhg0ljmyn

https://www.ournutsandbolts.com/ PTSD It's not the person refusing to let go of the past, but the past refusing to let go of the person. When we feel weak, we drop our heads on the shoulders of others. People generally don't suffer high rates of PTSD after natural disasters. Instead, people suffer from PTSD after moral atrocities. Soldiers who've endured the depraved world of combat experience their own symptoms. Trauma is an expulsive cataclysm of the soul. The victims of PTSD often feel morally tainted by their experiences, unable to recover confidence in their own goodness, trapped in a sort of spiritual solitary confinement, looking back at the rest of the world from beyond the barrier of what happened. They find themselves unable to communicate their condition to those who remained at home, resenting civilians for their blind innocence. Every day begins with an act of courage and hope: getting out of bed. #ptsd #trauma #cptsd #narcissisticabuse #love #truth #hope #forgiveness #ournutsandbolts https://www.instagram.com/p/CDilj8wFTEH/?igshid=1bwjvmxwaco2f

REDUCED COST: Online therapy eliminates the costs associated with travel time and gas. MORE CONSISTENT THERAPY: Online therapy decreases absences due to poor weather conditions or sickness, allowing clients to participate in therapy on a regular basis. MORE INTENSE THERAPY: Online therapy can be scheduled more frequently, as clients do not have to commute long distances.
