I have been struggling with trauma my whole life. The hard part is honestly trusting anyone. So many people that I've tried to talk with have made it worse. Finding a safe person who actually helps me has been so overwhelming. I stopped trying. I workout, have dogs, dance and try to have positive thoughts and pray. Every day is a battlefield of the mind. I have devoted myself to showing others love and compassion. I think we all desperately need that.

From what I've learned from KZitem trauma videos is to find a trauma certified therapist, not a talk therapist or cognitive behavioral therapy. Bessel Van Der Kolk and Gabor Mate are leaders in this field as far as I know. I came across psychotherapist Pete Walker on KZitem yesterday. He spent years as a client himself to heal his cptsd. His book and workbook has great reviews on Amazon. Maybe something worth checking out.

It is all ok, from the perspective of someone who has a PTSD, sometimes yoga increase anxiety and panic. With yoga it is more important to get the right dose and to gain safety for time. Because when you do streching of fascia some of as they call samskaras will eventually come up. From my own expirience I had severe panic atacks doing yoga. Grounding is the most important step. Feeling body. Stay present in body. EMDR is great because it takes away the wall of feeling difficult emotions. Sometimes runing, or gym can be helpfull. Walking and stay present is also good. Breathing deeply in youre pelvis. Feeling the presure of chair and bed, also grounding. These are all elements of somatic practice.

As a vocalist: choir was the happiest part of my college education. It was the only thing that relieved my stress. It’s very physical and the breathing was so helpful. I would go in totally discouraged and come out totally fine. Five days a week for seven years. I could always find relief, I just didn’t know it at the time. And when I graduated the anxiety really kicked back in.

It's important to let those negative emotions come out and release. From someone with severe anxiety, the best thing you can do is let them express, live the panic, let it be. The problem for anxiety and PTSD is continuously trying to escape from them. Trust me, let them storm in you, and afterwards you will feel incredibly released and lighter. Let's go 💪

I am so grateful people are doing things like this now. I am in my early 70's and was diagnosed with bipolar 15 - 20 years ago. But as I got older and could not hold a job I started self-reflecting and journalling, intensely. And I figured out that people raised similar to me would exhibit nearly the same symptoms as bipolar. There were many issues but the root problem was that I thought I would be killed there, and looking back it was not an illogical concern.

I feel like my doctors think I’m getting better because the many, many psychiatric medications I’m on make me numb and I don’t act out anymore. But the emotions are still bubbling under the surface. It’s manifesting in disease. Years of childhood abuse, then two abusive husbands have destroyed my sense of self. I’m stuck. Now I have lupus, fibromyalgia, stage 3 kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, thyroid disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and I have artificial hips, a fused spine on four levels, and an artificial shoulder, as well as TMJ. I grind my teeth so hard I grinder four teeth out of my head. My dental problems are horrible all because I can’t stop grinding. I don’t feel like anyone cares. It’s too much to carry. I’m only 51 but I’m afraid I’m going to die young because of all of this. I saw a quote the other day that hurt me so much. It said mental illness isn’t your fault but it’s your responsibility. That may be true but what about when you don’t know where to start? What about when no one seems to care? I was suicidal for so long. I want to live now but it doesn’t seem I have much to live for.

Any therapy focusing on the physical body as the grounding tool will have tremendously positive results. The limbic system responds remarkably well to feeling/experiencing/noticing/being aware of your physical body. It establishes safe- therefore allowing the parasympathetic to activate. I have based several tools in my own work on this theory/hypothesis and seen remarkable results (though at this point the focus on the body as the frame of reference for safe is becoming accepted).

Thank you recognizing that this trauma has become part of physicality of my body. I wish there was a nerve block to just stop the trauma response like a nerve block for physical pain. Even neurofeedback is difficult. When people have physical pain a doctor can identify the nerve pain and numb the nerve pain but trauma pain is still up to our ability to do it on our own.

The trauma response is your limbic system screaming "you are not safe". This can be reprogrammed. I have specialized work to create this exact response- the reset of the limbic system state by use of the physical body for grounding purposes (in an extremely strong and powerful way). I actually first created this work to deal with muscular/structural pain issues, and realized how applicable (actually perfect) it was to trauma states. Remember that trauma just like physical pain has a purpose, and just blocking it without understanding the cause can cause issues down the road as well.

PSTD from trauma is devastating to the body. We can get through it. But at some point the body does shut down after years of piling it up because life happens. KEY POINT: AT 57 TRUST ME. CUT OFF THR CORE SEED OF TRAUMA. My mom would not stop, new everything she'd ever done and although my coping skills had been at a high level ability to cope. My body can literally become critical and she knows it. CUT IT OFF. YES, CONSEQUENCES WILL COME. - but we must come to a place of Victory. Stop trying. CUT off sociopath narcissistic behaviors. CUT THEM OUT OF YOUR LIFE.. This also includes setting boundaries with everyone. Hard lines. MOST IMPORTANTLY SHUT DOWN THE SOURCE FROM CHILDHOOD. They do not change. Little old 76 year old mothers do not suddenly come to have empathy. The brain and body will heal. Don't give up and stop giving in. This is such a truth grabbing video.

I don't remember having that but I had at certain times continued low level stressors like not feel too safe in homeless hostels or having to beg for money for drugs. Watching family I loved be tortured by my inability to stop heroin etc I don't ever remember feeling overwhelmed but just low level continued stress at some points. The most stressful time has been putting the drugs down and feeling emotionally naked. I'm three yrs clean but always stressed because my body still want drugs allot.

I've heard trauma described by other professionals as anything that "exceeds your coping mechanisms and leaves a lasting change in the brain." That lasting change is the trauma. If you have struggled with addiction, almost certainly the root trauma predates and drives that addiction. Not to say you couldn't have multiple traumatic events. Chronically seen as "other" or "lesser" can also create trauma. Experiencing addiction to hard drugs can do those things, also being homeless. I'd say don't get hung up on the key word "overwhelm." Trauma changes our memories also, so even though you don't remember the "overwhelm" feeling, it could have happened in real time. I hope you find a wellspring of healing as you look into the possibility of your trauma further.

"Post traumatic stress is not post trauma. It feels like it's happening right now." I often describe my life as trying to clean the house or do homework while in the middle of a car wreck. Not just after the accident, not in the moment before, but literally as the car is spinning and flipping. Sometimes I have to remind myself that this is going on as well because I just go on with life, pretending the car accident isn't happening and wonder why I'm not able to thrive as well as other people in basic tasks.

Yes, the perception of time is totally different for those who don't suffer from PTSD. They have said to me: "Oh, it's already.....years ago". For me it's not past at all, I am still living it. The event keeps repeating internally as if it's a ghost who can't go to the light (yet)....unfinished business.

When you say if you can fight back there may be less trauma, this is why covert abuse is so extremely traumatic in ways most can not conceive. Covert abuse can be EXTREME with no way to fight back and no one else can see the abuse is happening, much less comprehend the impact. Covert abuse is more likely to lead to death than witnessing a shocking event or suffering a physical assault. Covert abuse can last for years without the victim being believed because the abuse is hidden even when the outcome may be seen in the victim's life. Usually the victim is blamed for negative outcome to their life when they are covertly abused. They become isolated due to the abuse being hidden and no one understanding what is actually happening.

Emotional neglect has been shown to change your brain as well. It is a type of trauma that is much harder to recognize because as Dr. Jonice Webb (who has written about neglect) has said, it is not what your parents DID do, but what they DID NOT do. Far too many people don't know how to tend to their own emotional needs, much less the emotional needs of their children. I suspect this is harder to work through. For me, I can't always recall specific "incidents" to think about during EMDR sessions. I struggle to feel anything actually, but in researching this found that actually is also a symptom of emotional neglect...the difficulty in expressing and understanding your feelings.

What happens to a person that for whatever reason can't create and maintain relationships from childhood through adulthood. Everyone doesn't have family and friends, but it's never talked about how these people function and live. Instead people (children and adults) are looked at as pariahs as if something MUST be wrong with them which is also traumatic. Also, I'd like to see research on how trauma and mental illness can and does for some make you look older and what can be done about it. If anybody has any suggestions, I hear for them.

Is it true that the arts can help heal trauma too? Painting, writing? I’ve had PTSD for my whole life and I have had no luck finding help out there as far as therapist go. Americas health care system is a complete mess. We have so many people in need of healing but they don’t know where to turn and they can’t afford health care. The educational system feeds into the trauma instead of helping ( I’m sure not every school is as bad as some that I have witnessed through trying to work in them ...for the past ten years or so but it is a very sad thing to witness what is happening in many of our schools. Anyway, I have practiced yoga, dancing, meditation, chanting, nature walks, breathing techniques and many other things and they have all helped so much! I still have a way to go. You are so so right that these things should be taught to every child, starting at an early age. We’d have a healed society.

Learning the physiology of a panic attack helped me a lot, understanding what happens in your body when they occur helped me not be afraid of it. A lot of doctors don’t take the time to explain that everything you feel is real, it may not kill you but it is 100% real, it is not imagined. I recommend reading about it from a physiology perspective, understand why you feel tingling, blurred vision, chest pressure, etc, and if it ever happens again you just stay still, you keep telling yourself i know what this is, I have felt it before and it will be ok.

Emotional neglect causes brain damage, autoimmune disease, addiction and adhd. And in our society, most kids are emotionally neglected, by parents who were so emotionally neglected, they don't even know they are supposed to love their children. Sadhguru has some beautiful videos about how to become your child's guru, inspiring them to be their best through being interested in them, and showing love.

Trauma is what is left behind when we experience an event where we lack the ability to cope and our caregivers fail to meet those needs. There are so many holistic ways to move through trauma - you can utilize movement practices to move stuck emotions - yoga, walking, dancing, somatic exercises, qi gong, tai chi, etc.; you can incorporate breathwork to work with your physiology to bring your heart rate and blood pressure into normal limits; taking control of your thoughts/behaviours - understanding what unhelpful coping mechanisms you've put in place to keep you safe, knowing how your thoughts can be controlled and to change them to healthier thoughts before it results in reactions; inner child work - provide yourself with what you lacked as a child - you didn't feel safe, provide yourself with safety; didn't get to play because you were a caregiver for your parents - play now! It's nice to see that trauma and mental health healing is becoming more prevalent.

@@tousifk3138 Our emotions are generated and stored in the body. We think they come from the mind, but they aren't. Our thoughts drive our emotions though. So, you have to watch your thoughts as a part of regulating your emotions. Think about when you are sad and you feel that sensation spread through your chest, or you feel your throat constrict, you feel the tears welling up. They are all physical expressions of our emotions. The mind, is the thoughts. Thinking "I feel sad" or "I'm furious!" is the part that the mind carries. The brain, it's neuropathways (the nerves that run through your brain from one region another), wires to respond at lightning speeds in habitual ways. If every time you get angry you yell, your brain wires that response to your anger, it becomes your go - to reaction. You have to rewire your brain overtime, that when you get angry, you remain calm and in charge of your emotions. Eventually, new neuropathways are laid down and the new response of anger and calm will become your go-to response. I hope that makes sense. You can always follow me on Facebook.
