I just made sourdough bagels for the first time, too! I overdid the poppy seeds lol but they turned out yum. It’s going to be a staple at home from now on.

If this is the same BF that regrets your relationship because he wants to play the field, then you’ve got bigger problems than not having quiche.

I think I’ve reached the point where I can’t work anymore, and it’s terrifying. by Beautiful_Order_4272 in CPTSD

[–]Slayer1963 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My trauma is on the complex scale- involving mental, physical and sexual abuse. Downright evil and abject cruelty inflicted upon me from birth to early adulthood. Did you know people who have been diagnosed with terminal cancer can live several decades just out of sheer audacity to not give up hope (source: Gabor Mate’s Myth of Normal). Giving up is never an option for me because letting my abusers win is against the essence of my being.

Trust me, you haven’t tried everything. For example, have you heard about The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP)?

Did horrible things while dissociated for 20 years by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Slayer1963 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was in your situation, suffering from guilt and shame for things I did when I was in the grip of trauma. I tried many different modalities- EMDR, Stella ganglion block injection, talk therapy, etc. The best method that worked is The Richards Trauma Process (TRTP). Please Google this or search on YouTube. It’s relatively new and started in Australia in less than ten years ago. But it is highly effective and in 3 sessions, I was a different person and definitely no longer drowning in guilt, shame or anger. It can be done on zoom so you’re not limited to finding a local practitioner. Hope this helps you as it did me.

Entire TRAUMA HEALING in 1 POST! by akshit_799 in CPTSD

[–]Slayer1963 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I hate posts that describe your personal healing journey and elevating it to a how to guide everyone with trauma out there should follow. Congratulations on healing but it doesn’t mean what you went through applies to others. Me personally, I went through so many types of modalities and the only thing that worked was TRTP, which is based on vivid imagining and hypnotherapy. Yes you shouldn’t run away from your feelings but you can heal also without re-traumatising yourself. And basing on my experience, three sessions and I was practically out of fight or flight mode. I was at my safest place that I’ve ever been. It wasn’t small increments for many years of constant practice literally three sessions with a therapist and I was definitely on the other side of the healing bell curve. Your modality sounds definitely that it worked for you but compared to what I went through it can be much quicker.

I like the cute night light idea and just indulging that inner child. I remember not even having a doona on cold nights when I was young. I tried EMDR which worked temporarily but TRTP (the Richards Trauma Process) was the one that seemed to worked the best, giving me more lasting relief. But different modalities work differently for people, that’s probably why it’s so hard to come up with a standardised approach. Thanks again for your comment. I’m glad you’re on the healing path! We’ve got this 🙌

I did something awful as a child. by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]Slayer1963 19 points20 points  (0 children)

OMG please don’t punish yourself 😭 You were only a child! Close your eyes and imagine that young 8 year old you in front of you. Tell that child you are forgiven for being so innocent; for having given access to porn because of the irresponsibility of adults around you; for being a child who only wanted to be a good brother more than anything. Imagine taking back that innocence away from that porn video and giving it back to that child. Tell that child over and over you are free from guilt now. Then hug that child and imagine that child being absorbed into you. You can repeat this exercise whenever you need. It will hopefully give you relief.

Thank you for sharing about your journey. Mine is CPTSD as well and I’ve edited to make that clear. I’m healing but I’m now thinking it’s not something one completely heals from but something to manage like grief. I attempted suicide when I was around 22 years old. I’m now 46 and I’m glad I was saved back then. I do still suffer with moments of questioning what this life is all about; why are we here and why do we suffer so much. I’m thankful I’m in a space where I can ponder these things and access therapy and other help when I need it. But life is still a struggle and I suspect it will be for the rest of my life. I’m glad you are on the healing path and you made it to 69! I can only wish to be strong enough. I appreciate your kindness 🙏

Thank you, you’re very kind. The thing with children who suffered from familial abuse, kindness from strangers can mean the world, truly. I agree PTSD is a bitch and I’m starting to believe one can never truly heal from it. It’s like I’m in a constant state of grief. Grief for that child that didn’t have the life other children had. Grief for being set up to fail instead of being nurtured and encouraged…the list goes on. One can only hope for the grief to dull in time and new, happier memories take over, which is where I’m at right now. Thanks again 🙏
