#posttraumaticgrowth

[bianca-alexander88]

shout out to everyone living with a neurodivergent brain, for whom the typical or standard “one size fits all” approach to functioning and perception just doesn’t serve you or speak to your lived experience. 

shout out to everyone for whom self-regulation is a new skill set that you’re teaching yourself through the radical practices of mindfulness, gratitude, and self-compassion.  

shout out to everyone learning how to self-sooth, developing internal validation techniques so you can centre yourself whenever your nervous system becomes dysregulated. 

shout out to everyone who has begun establishing and communicating your boundaries within your relationships; it is not selfish to prioritize yourself, or to fiercely protect your mental health and energy.  

shout out to everyone actively doing the work to overcome traumatic experiences; it is so incredibly brave of you to heal yourself instead of externalize your pain onto others. the potential for post-traumatic growth is real. 

shout out to the Boo Radleys, the misunderstood villains, the anti-heroes, the eccentric outcasts, the magical misfits, and everyone non-normative. you’re my people and i see you.

I've heard that unhealed childhood trauma causes numerous adult issues from people pleasing to feelings of abandonment. #teamsteele #discipline #hardwork #dedication #wellbeingadvisor #fitmoms #positivevibes #wednesdayvibes #onlygoodvibes #positiveenergy #healthylifestyle  #childhoodtrauma #trauma #abuse #mentalhealthmatters #mensmentalhealth #healingjourney #selfawareness #hope #hopeforthefuture #posttraumaticgrowth #narcissisticabusesurvivor #thebodykeepsthescore #selfhealers

Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives. 💚 - Bessel van der Kolk Reposted from @the.embodiedtherapist 💭Being able to feel safe with other people is probably the single most important aspect of mental health; ​safe connections are fundamental to meaningful and satisfying lives. @bessel_van Safety with self, with others, and within the context of the larger world in general is greatly impacted with repeated exposures to trauma. Reconnecting to self to regain safety and with others to attach and trust is a journey. It’s a process that may take time.

C-PTSD- What is it?

Hey guys so I thought that I’d actually start using this platform. I thought I’d use it for blogging down my thoughts and feelings and just being able to get things down on paper. Lately I’ve been making YouTube videos to help people and share my thoughts/ experiences and stories on there; but with things pretty much going back to normal in the work department. It means that I’ve had less time to make them and share them in order to help people. So I wanted to be able to use a platform that I’ve had and liked to be able to continue sharing and use my voice to still be able to help people and remind them that they aren’t alone if they can resonate with anything that I’ve said. So a lot has come up for me recently. I only just realised that everything that I dealt with growing up and in my early to late childhood years was based around C-PTSD. What’s C-PTSD you might ask? A way to separate it from PTSD is that it’s related to a series of events, or one prolonged event; whereas PTSD is normally related to a single event. C-PTSD stands for complex post traumatic stress disorder and for a long time even though I experienced trauma a lot in my early childhood, adolescent and early adulthood years, I never thought that I suffered from PTSD. I knew that I had certain trigger points that would then lead me to have to deal with mental health issues down the road that included anxiety and depression. Or where I would feel and think certain things based on what happened to me. But I never really based it to that particular traumatic event that occurred in my life. Or it wasn’t like that aha moment where I knew it was because of that certain event that lead me down the path of understanding why I had these certain thought processes and feelings or recurring patterns that were coming up for me throughout my early years in life all having to do with this trauma that I had been dealt with which really started when I was a child. The more that I looked into it, the symptoms that are associated with it; the more that I came to terms and grasps that all this combining it with everything that happened to me really does make a whole lot of sense. Symptoms that are normally associated with C-PTSD are: anxiety, depression, emotional flashbacks to the trauma, shutting down with the world, being on edge and in flight mode. Questioning your existence, who you are as a person, feeling like you need to pretend who you are, disassociation, getting migraines, chronic pain and auto immune diseases, no trust or lack of trust with people, relationship breakdowns and lack of memory. Other symptoms that I had within my life that I feel like could relate to this is people pleasing, always being afraid of doing the wrong thing, not being good enough/failing, always putting others before myself and that usually came with everything; not having boundaries or lack there of. Not really understanding what love actually was and the respect that is associated with that for yourself. I am now starting to unlearn all these behaviours that I have made myself believe was normal for so long; which I learnt in my early twenties that it isn’t. It has been such a process on this journey of healing and it’s been hard and still is hard at times. But these moments in your life; they don’t define who you are, I believe instead they help to mold you into the person that you choose that you want to be and that you become your own strength, your own light and your own warrior in life- to your own self discovery. Although there are moments that seem like they should have broken us and we should cower, instead we choose to rise above it. I’m sharing my voice hoping that I can help people on their journey of healing and towards there self discovery to remind them they are more then there trauma and there hardships in life.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is made by the strong . Lots of forgiving for mental illness and trauma. As #chickswhorip we must support or give resources to those in need, so the use of our time is done more efficiently and productively and the feel of worthiness attributes to better mental health. Forgive someone for they may be having a bad day, panic attack, trauma or depression. #womensupport #forgiving #leadership #psychology #posttraumaticgrowth https://www.instagram.com/p/CNl1AsLnOO9/?igshid=dxylislgdkrb

It's okay to not be positive all the time. It's okay to not be liked by everyone. It's okay to fall off for a little while. It's okay to have creative blocks. It's okay to standup for yourself. It's okay to feel overwhelmed. It's okay to not be perfect. It's okay to ask for help. It's okay to let it go. It's okay to say no. You're human.
