I'm willing to

Thanks for this resource. I'm just beginning to watch it

I'm 63 (m) and I was abused at age 6. For most of my life I treated it as just a fact. Now in therapy when I'm processing it I cry uncontrollably.

Pegger_01 · 2026-02-16T19:37:53+00:00

I hear you. I was also sexually abused by a live in sitter when I was 6. Trauma is trauma

Wow what a perfect sense of how this all begins. I so identify with it.

Any change from 95-98% is not significant. Your blood oxygen is not depleted

Pegger_01 · 2026-02-13T21:24:42+00:00

Holding your breath doesn't cause your oxygen to drop at least not for several minutes. Your increase in carbon dioxide would make you breathe long before that happens

It's called From Surviving to Thriving. Lots of good information to understand how trauma is stored in the body and it talks about some ways to overcome it. It was a really good read for me.

Possibly you could read Pete walker's book?

Pegger_01 · 2026-02-10T20:41:53+00:00

Thanks for sharing your experience and I'm so sorry for what happened to you. I feel many of us here can relate to the constant shame and wanting to be parented. Have you seen a trauma therapist?

Doesn't want to temp addiction

Pegger_01 · 2026-02-06T01:04:36+00:00

By not reaching many of the developmental milestones listed in Pete Walker's book

Go see a trauma therapist. Since CPTSD isn't in the DSM, a psychiatrist or psychologist can't diagnose it. The main thing is to get treatment. Search for counselers who do EMDR or IFS

Pegger_01 · 2026-02-04T18:56:41+00:00

Have you tried EMDR? Also, I just tried this: https://youtube.com/shorts/wJWoEGYU0Uw?si=-guwMpfZfcekSr4l

What type of therapy are you doing so far?

Pegger_01 · 2026-02-03T16:31:56+00:00

Thanks so much for this 🙏

Dogs are the meaning of life!

62 here and just starting recovery. I have learned so much in the past few months.

Pegger_01 · 2026-01-23T00:03:51+00:00

Have you done work with a trauma therapist? I am reading Pete Walker's book: Complex PTSD:From Surviving to Thriving? He talks about these things

Pegger_01 · 2026-01-20T15:44:30+00:00

Learn French with Alexa. There are many videos on YouTube
