Aside from the struggles of CPTSD.. does anyone ever just have a moment of reflection where you realize how far you've come over the years? Do you ever remember your lowest, scariest, darkest point and think... Damn, I was really there.. I'm so proud of myself. Go "little me" 🤘
I know we deal with so much on a daily basis that we keep to ourselves since we know we can't share it with anyone else in our lives. All of the memories, the discomfort, the trauma responses, the over reactive responses, the social anxiety, the triggers, the dissociation, the loneliness and the hurt we know so clearly.. However, I sure hope all of us are doing better in some way. Be it mentally, physically, spiritually or in any way, shape or form.
While reminiscing on my life and my journey before bed, I just wanted to reach out to say I'm happy I found this feed where I've been able to chat with other people who seem more like me than anyone I've ever met. I don't believe I've ever met others who think, feel and speak more deeply about real life situations.. it kinda feels like comfort to me if that makes sense.
It's awful that we've gone through such hellish moments, but I believe we deserve so much more than the cards we were dealt.
We are survivors and I hope you can all say that to yourself without second guessing it. The scars will always remind us of where we came from, but they don't define who we are.
If anyone would like to chat about your struggles growing up without guidance and any successes or progress you've made since the trauma you've experienced; feel free.
What are you most proud of and why?
