Being married really opened a whole new process of healing for me. I come from a horrifically violent home from which I ran away as soon as I turned 18.
I had no idea just how much hurt and burden I was carrying around on a daily basis. I had a very cynical view of the world, and I was always on the edge, ready to get on the attack mode. The thing is, I thought this was the way everyone lived. This was the only reality I ever knew.
Then my wife came along, and she is a very emotionally conscious person. She saw almost immediately into my subconsciousness and the unbelievable amount of cPTSD built up inside. When she first tried to help, she was met with aggression, hostility, and anger. This really hurt her, but she never gave up.
I have now regular psychiatric consultations and have been working toward healing for several years. My goodness, was it uncomfortable, and how it still is! But I am now at the stage of being able to thinking through my emotions, even view them from the third person's POV, and formulating them into words - both positive and negative emotions. I still have a very hard time allowing myself to feel, but I damn sure am better than I used to be.
I really thank my wife for bringing me out of the darkness.

That part about getting out of my comfort zone! I Cringe at the thought of meeting new people, but a few months ago I successfully joined a writers' group. And I cannot begin to tell you the things that I've been able to work through since then! Accepting that I've been through difficult experiences and allowing myself to feel my emotions about those experiences! But one thing in particular stands out! I had an extremely negative experience recently and I was on the brink of a total shutdown, but I refused to give up on a budding friendship so quickly! He acknowledged that he hurt me, he apologized, and we worked through it together! I have never had such a positive healing experience before!

Every single one of these points feel like they were written just for me. I am that person who has been trying to do it alone for almost 39 yrs. I am that person that thought I didnt need help. I am that person who keeps telling myself I should be happy and have nothing to be depressed about when I know there have been so many bad things in my life. They just werent as bad as what other people went through. Thank you for this. Healing hurts and I cry often, but Im glad Im learning to embrace the whole of me and ask for help.

This was dope and fantastic. literally had a lil argument called a counseling line, saw this and now want to go to the gym and do other things. honestly sometimes feels like I want to work on my relationship with others but I beleive working on myself will help those around me. anyway don't got it all figured out but that's the point I guess is to continue while we're here and do some good for ourselves and peeps around when we can. love y'all hope we can all work in these things.

I am aiming for what can never be taken from me. selfhood. To be complete in me. To stop looking for myself in people, places, things. I can only control myself never exrernals or others. To live one day at a time only. That is all l have to handle this day only. Gratitude for myself and simple peaceful sanity. Allow myself to feel vunerable and self care. I am a work in progress. Oh a big one. not anymore looking for others approval but my own.

It took me a while to realize that I have so much trauma accumulated from my own narcissistic mother. The universe had to put my twin flame in front of me before this fact finally struck me. I'm now in the process of healing and I have my twin to thank because he's made the journey of healing almost a cakewalk.
Thank yo so much Psych2go team! You are doing all of us a world of good. TuT We can't ever thank you enough.

I found this video so helpful as I go through my journey of healing from severe trauma. I find myself a bit more more confident in situations, setting boundaries with people and not over worrying. I am feeling less anxious about expressing myself and my therapist is also helping me with my self esteem. The video gives me hope that I will come through, despite the pain that may come along the way. Thank you so much

KEEP IN MIND: healing is not linear. some days, you will feel like you've fully moved on then the next day all the pain will come flowing back. that is NORMAL. even when you feel like you're back to square one, you're not. relapsing IS a sign of healing, it is a sign of progress. you're doing great and i'm proud of you. you keep going

This really hit home and good timing when it was presented to me (today. This video made me become aware of all of these signs of my own healing without knowing they existed. I've been feeling like I'm healing and it's really good to know these signs exist. It makes me feel better that maybe I'm on the right track. Thank you!

I am healing, first of all I renovate my rooms. And I didn't think that is siffiecient for me, I thought the best is just enough for me. I cried a lot and allow it, but I hate a lot, too and I am angry a lot. But every feeling is good and allowed. I don't have to be considerate.

Honestly, the hardest part for me is forgiving the people that hurt me. Do they even deserve it? Why should I forgive them? They probably aren't sorry for what they did, so what's the point? If anyone has any tips on this, please share, and I wish you all health and happiness

I know I'm repressing something when my muscles get stiff and I subconsciously hold my breath, I was in this state for over a decade and had no idea that I was repressing stuff. Now I just breath through it and welcome the expression, even though it's challenging at first.

It takes time, be kind to yourself. Forgive yourself. Keep learning and growing

Half of these things I'm actually doing, and as a person, it's made me feel so glad to. I got tired of being around those who didn't see me as me. Being abused as a child is the one however I'm still stuck at. Bc i just don't even know what to do.

Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.

I related to all of these, I believe I've healed well from my experiences, I was able to fulfill this on my own, somehow. I am very happy nowadays and am trying to be more social and improving myself everyday and after every experience

The most obvious sign is when you realize the divine is the problem, you start thinking individually, distancing yourself, and the universe tries to reel you back in with lies, empty promises, similar to what narcissists do
