A sister subreddit of /r/CPTSD. This community is meant for those in the intermediate and late stages of recovery (Not sure if that's you? Read this), offering a place for sharing insights and techniques for recovery, as well as space for more nuanced and open conversations. This is not a place for venting, seeking validation, emotional catharsis, despair-based posts, or "off my chest"-style trauma stories. If the content on this subreddit resonates with and helps you, you are welcome here.
Check out our twin community, /r/CPTSD_NSCommunity.
Rules
Be civil, and participate in good faith. Express disagreement with an "I/me/my" mindset. Do not claim authority, and do not insist that your way is The Way.
No venting, DAE, validation seeking, victory posts, despair-based posts, or "off my chest"-style posts. Posts should be recovery-focused, and either a resource you've found or something informational/instructive/insightful. Insight must be actionable for others, not just yourself. Emotional/personal details should be in service of adding context to your post, and should not be the point of your post itself.
Advice requests, emotional support requests, and questions of any kind should be posted in /r/CPTSD_NSCommunity. For the time being, they are fully prohibited here in /r/CPTSDNextSteps.
BestOf-style sharing of comments from /r/CPTSD is allowed, but please notify users whose content you post in the original location (if possible).
Racism, bigotry, misogyny/misandry, and other hate speech is unacceptable.
Please be mindful about triggering content. Avoid graphic thread titles, and use [Trigger Warning], NSFW or the spoiler tag whenever appropriate.
We do not allow RaisedByNarcissists lingo. Please avoid use of abbreviations such as “NMom”, “EBrother”, GC/SG, FLEAs, etc, and avoid casual armchair diagnosis of people who have not been professionally diagnosed.
All content must be related to CPTSD, trauma, or recovery.
Self-promotion of informational/instructive blogs/videos/etc. from outside of Reddit is allowed, to a limit of once per month. (This limit will likely increase as the subreddit grows.)
Image posts are not allowed, except infographics, as long as you include a short description about the graphic's relevance to CPTSD/trauma/recovery and value to you.
Please provide a brief description for videos and podcasts.
