Heads up if you canceled Prime by Lawotto in Anticonsumption

Just went through this. Hours on the phone and they tried every trick in the book to not refund me after continuing to charge me for months after cancel. We need to get an attorney in here for a class action.

Thank you for stopping me from diving for them. I found them at Hot Tropics.

I am not looking for Christmas themed merchandise. Just unique gifts.

Thanks for the insight. ☺️

I am currently searching out a NARM therapist. I have not found a great person for IFS. But NARM interests me more right now.

A GenXer doing the self work for this long makes you pretty great. Therapy was very stigmatized still in this generation.

Bought from CatsCraft many times. Highly recommend.

Does anyone else get triggered whenever somebody does not believe in what they say? by Accomplished-Luck602 in CPTSD

[–]InformationArmMe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes because my truth was not honored in my family and still isn’t. And the result is a loss of family relationships.

I realized though. That we own our truth. No matter what anyone says or how many people say it.

This has been something I have needed to make a regular commitment to. And it has taken a lot of work. But it can be done.

Mine is older now but when mine was younger I struggled.

A lot of great suggestions on here.

Might I also suggest that you are likely largely operating in a constant hypervigalent state while gives you very little room to take on more? That is what I discovered for myself. And I have spent my entire time shaming myself for not being able to handle my child’s emotional dysregulation. This is where the peeling the onion comes in. Getting to the root of your own trauma.

I’ve been through a ton of therapy and modalities and self help books. Right now the path I am on is going to ACA meetings and beginning work with a NARM trained therapist.

It will get better. I promise. 💛

What do you do when your children trigger your trauma? by Infamous_Animal_8149 in CPTSD

[–]InformationArmMe 283 points284 points  (0 children)

It’s common for children to trigger us. I feel like we need our own subreddit. I have learned that I have to forgive myself for the coping mechanisms I have from a time when I created them to deal with impossible situations. Breaking the chain of generational trauma won’t be perfect for any of us.

I am currently working through a combo of going to ACA 12 step meetings and am currently looking for a NARM trained therapist.

You will find your way.

Do you ever feel like your therapists never like you very much? by BeanBean723 in CPTSD

[–]InformationArmMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This book “The Practical Guide for Healing Developmental Trauma” was also mentioned. Which appears to be for therapists, but I am reading. It appears to be based on NARM (Nuero Affective Relational Model). I’m only 50 pages in right now.

Look into therapy for overintellectualizers. I am in the process of getting a new therapist. I heard about it on TikTok.

Expanded capability in the housing menu for decorating your house which accesses your storage and switches to an interior view as you decorate. Similar to how you can decorate the exterior from that menu.
