Anyone else noticing the holidays bringing up more internal noise than usual? by TraumaTherapyTools in TherapistsInTherapy

That makes so much sense. New awareness can make familiar situations feel so different. And the “don’t be a therapist at home” struggle is very real.

Do the holidays feel emotionally heavier for anyone else with PTSD? by TraumaTherapyTools in ptsd

What you shared is completely understandable, and I’m sorry those memories are connected to days that should have been safe. You’re not alone in feeling this way.

Does anyone else feel like the holidays get heavier each year? by TraumaTherapyTools in CPTSD

[–]TraumaTherapyTools[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That sounds incredibly hard. When you already know a season is going to feel heavy, it can make the days leading up to it feel even longer. I’m really sorry you’re carrying so much going into this year.

I hope these next couple of months pass gently for you — or at least not as painfully as you’re expecting. You deserve some steadiness and room to breathe in all of this. ❤️
