through trauma therapy i’m realizing many of my chronic illnesses that i’ve been diagnosed with that seemingly had no explanation, are explained by my childhood trauma, especially the csa i endured. for instance, i have had a constant unrelenting headache for many years and no doctor has been able to get to the bottom of it and i’ve only recently learned that it’s mainly because of how hard i clench my jaw 24/7. there’s never a moment i’m not clenching my jaw unless i’m like talking. i also have several issues with my pelvic floor, and i’m realizing that its because i hold so much tension in that area and i clench it 24/7 as well.
has anyone else made similar observations and has anyone else found anything that helps? my body is broken and i just want to fix it as much as i’m able to
Mine is very similar to yours. I have TMJ, one side of my jaw basically deteriorated due to chronic grinding and clenching.
Ongoing muscle tension and weakness, particularly in my hips.
I also have endometriosis which is a chronic pain illness made worse by stress.
