    Hope you girls realize that it’s ok to cry. I hate how much you guys cringe or apologize for crying. It’s natural and it’s ok. You have gone through a huge loss no need to explain yourself to anybody. The real ones get you ❤

    I lost my fiancé (boyfriend of 7 years) tragically a little over a year ago. We went out to dinner that night and I will forever cherish that last meal we shared together. We lived around the corner to a liquor store and he was supposed to take a quick walk up there cause he wanted a beer and he never made it back home to me. I told him not to leave too and he wanted to go anyway. He was struck by a car and the car left him there. The doctors told me that if that car would have immediately stopped and called an ambulance, he might have made it. But because they ran away from the scene and left my baby laying there alone, he lost too much oxygen to his brain. I now live my life so differently, you really can lose someone in seconds and you never think these things can happen to you… until they do. Cherish all the time you have with your loved ones, you never know what is going to happen 💔

    As a sister I can totally understand Karina. I would hurt and break if my sister thought about her dying soon. And just the thought of not having her breaks my heart.

      @Ilovemyglad ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Talk about it, it’s so difficult too but let me tell you… it helps so much!
      I’m 26 and started experiencing that at 24-25, I felt trapped but figured out it was my past traumas… so I spoke about it to my mom, my husband. And speaking to them and letting my emotions out helped so much. I pray for every single one of you, that you may experience true peace and calmness. That y’all have the strength to know you’re stronger and you can speak with your loved ones ❤

    This could just be your purpose Mayra. Opening up to the world about the things you’ve been through and being a perfect example of how resilient we can be. You’ve gone through hell and still have it in you to want to help others. You’re using this platform for great things.

  • @jennifervidal5977
    @jennifervidal5977 ปีที่แล้ว +59

    Mayra bringing up her trauma about being scared something bad happens, I could relate. Mayra, you sharing your story makes me feel heard. Losing a love one hard and the trauma is difficult. It’s hard to speak it out because ppl assume your weak, but all you need it to be heard. This podcast has help me coping losing my mom. Her birthday is next week and it will be my 4th year without her. No one understands the grief and assume i should be OK.
    Mayra and Karina thank you!

  • @dianaz777
    @dianaz777 ปีที่แล้ว +49

    Mayra please don’t hold back, let it out girl don’t hold it in. I have so many triggers on and off. I avoid taking my kids to the store because of how many things happen and when I do I always think about where all the exits are. Sometimes I can’t watch movies where there is death because it triggers me. I try to keep as busy as I can because my mind will go wild if I just sit and “relax”

  • @celiae.8479
    @celiae.8479 ปีที่แล้ว +50

    Mayra, consider exploring an official mental health diagnosis with your therapist. All of the symptoms and triggers that you are talking about have an official diagnosis and when you are able to put a name to your current emotional and physical state, you will feel like a million bricks of weight came off your shoulders! Thank you so much for being so vulnerable in your journey! I am pretty selective of the people I like to follow and you and your sister embody every single value of what I like to feed my own mind and spirit! Props to Karina for giving you the space and encouragement to share about your journey. I think something interesting to explore for Karina on the podcast is the weight and guilt that comes with having a twin who is struggling with a lot of events that as much as you attempt to understand her point of view, you have never gone through them. Love your podcast, your both doing amazing!

    • @velvisperez9489

      Yes to getting an official diagnosis. I know also that ADHD in women come with a lot of anxiety and depression but their could be so many diagnosis.
      I can totally relate to Myra with all she is saying.
      After my dad died unexpectedly everything is an overwhelming worry about any little bad thing happening.
      Wish I be your friend and vent and cry together , Myra. ! You’re so brave.

    I hope you guys know that the vulnerability and realness of this podcast is what makes it my favorite. Mayra talking about her grief and Bryancito gives a lot of us some type of comfort because we know exactly what she is feeling and it makes us not feel alone❤ a baby loss mama over here unfortunately and we love hearing about Bryancito just as much as I love to talk about my baby Ezra in heaven❤❤

    Can I just say that i will always ride for this podcast wether the episodes are sad all the time or happy once in a while. I have never thought to myself that you are miserable, I have always seen Mayra as such a strong person for sharing on the podcast cause she really doesnt have to but that just goes to show how strong/real she is.

    I’ve never had anyone describe exactly what goes on in my head. After losing my first daughter while 5 months pregnant, my entire being has changed. I thought this was normal. But seeing Karina react to Mayra’s thoughts makes me realize not everyone’s mind is constantly running like this. Always preparing for something to go wrong. Seeing this now, I think I need to look into therapy as well. Thank you for being vulnerable with us !

    The podcast I needed. ⚠️ Was SA'd over a year ago by a friends family member & have lost so many "friends" after I told them, crying telling them what happened. As someone that NEVER cries or tells my business this was extra uncomfortable for me to tell them. Saw so many true ugly colors from these people who I had known for 15 plus years. Hearing Karina angry about the people that don't really care, I can relate girl! Good for Karina for acknowledging, going to someone dealing with trauma about petty shit is weird. Funny how people feel comfortable bringing their petty bs to me but didn't have time to listen when I cried to them. 100% relate to Mayra in the sense that the happy moments feel very temporary & always waiting for the next bad thing to happen. Happy Mayra is talking to a therapist. Proud of you!

I’m glad you spoke about this, because I was feeling the same not too long ago. May god cover us in his glory, and give us perseverance to continue this life loving it out the best we can! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    I know you guys are are sisters and probably talk often because you’re sisters, but I feel like these podcasts actually bring you two even closer! We have a busy daily life and can maybe forget to mention certain things, or wanna stay positive like you mentioned, but girl! These conversations just open up so so much more and we’re here for it and support all of it. You’re definitely not crazy! Just wanna hug you both so so much and you guys make my work day so much better ❤

    My mom passed in 2021 and even till now I get guilty when I go out and have fun. Everything I do I say “my mom would’ve liked that”. I make myself feel guilty moving on whiteout her. I’ve felt so many emotions listening to this episode that I think I’ve been tugging away. And I just want to say thank you because I just had a good crying session that I did not know I needed.

  • @Marieee__

    My mom passed when I was 3. As a 6/7 year old I used to feel that exact way when my grandma would leave anywhere. I could remember staring outside the window waiting for her to pull up. My young mind would play these scenarios of her dying and me having to go live with an aunt. Like I was preparing myself. I never knew this was trauma, thanks for sharing ❤

  • @MommyBee1031
    @MommyBee1031 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I can relate to your anxiety Mayra. I lost my dad on 8.1.2022 to suicide. My family hadn’t dealt with a death since the year 2001, so it was VERY traumatic! Very! Especially to lose my dad the way we did. After I was way to paranoid and I didn’t want my husband to leave for work. I was so scared he wouldn’t come home. I also felt like something was going to happen to me too. I kept thinking I was also going to die. Thank you for sharing. I appreciate it. Unfortunately, I am on a wait list for a therapist. So I appreciate you sharing this.
    Karina: also, I get what u were saying about seeing people in a different color. Like me, only about 2 friends of mine reached out to me when I lost my dad. 2!! It’s crazy how I thought the others cared like they said they did but when tragedy hit, they ran!

  • @MelissaMartinez-cj5zn
    @MelissaMartinez-cj5zn ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Same thing happened to me as Mayra. I was so scared of dying or someone close to me dying, I was so anxious for months, it caused me to go into depression for a couple months. It’s such a scary thing, I had scenarios play out in my head of anything that had to do with death. Once you educate yourself about it, it becomes less scary because it’s true, your brain is protecting you. That way of thinking has made me value the time with my family a lot more and has made me love myself so much more because life is such a beautiful experience. So glad Mayra is getting the help she needs from her therapist❤

    Lovee you guys!! I feel like sometimes Karina internalizes so much to be strong and support Myra.. you girlies are soo strong!! Ofc Myra has gone through so much trauma & glad she’s gotten to a place to see a therapist. Karina you’ve gone through so much too with multiple miscarriages & lost a nephew especially worrying about your twin! I hope you heal too! Also hope you guys can get in a comfortable place to be okay sharing/ showing your emotions/ crying on the pod, we see you, we hear you, we can relate & empathize! 🤍🤍🤍🤍

  • @MommyBee1031
    @MommyBee1031 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Yes! Karina. Towards the end what you said. My mom has lost her baby sister who was a stillborn. Then she lost her dad, then lost her sister to cancer, then lost her mom to heart & kidney failure and now her husband (my dad to suicide). She has been through HELL & she is still here trying to keep her head above water. My heart aches for her losses.

    I had a high risk pregnancy in 2018, delivery at 25 weeks and the whole hospital stay was a lot but i genuinely don't think i truly processed all that until now, almost 5 years later and my daughter is doing so much better so i think my mind is calming down from having to be in high protection mode and i can feel my mind and behavior finally letting my emotions take over and let me cry over that experience. Mayra encouraged me into seeking therapy thank you girls !

    I am 110% grateful for you opening up like this. I’ve been struggling with these issues and I literally felt like I was was about to have a complete mental meltdown from trying to convince myself that things are ok. Thank you for this. Words can never describe how much you have helped so many of us with these few words.

  • @B3rrYbby

    you guys are right you never know when you are living your prime I remember sitting at my uncles funeral saying I thank God my parents are alive I could never imagine an hour later I get a phone call that my dad passed away. My life has never been the same, I still cry every time I talk about him. When you lose someone you love deeply a part of you dies with them. It's okay for you to cry never hold back your feelings are always valid. listening to Mayras therapy makes me want to give it a try so I can heal I appreciate you sharing

  • @veronica.delacruz5142

    Girl I know how you feel. It's been over 21 years since my son passed from Sid's and even barely now. My friends are apologizing for that time not being there for me because they didn't know what to say or do. They were always just used to me being happy and I get how you were thinking something was going to happen after I lost my son. I had my three girls to keep me going but at the same time I was afraid to let them go anywhere not even with the immediate family cuz I was so scared that something was going to happen again so I know what you're going through. Myra, it's going to take a lot of time and don't be embarrassed or ashamed that you're still going through it. I still get sad after all these years. I love your show. It's kind of therapeutic to me because at that time I didn't have anybody for me and I had to see a therapist too and that's what got me through it also. Much love to you both!

  • @blancapaloma90
    @blancapaloma90 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love that you felt comfortable enough to open up about your experiences because it's very common. The brain becomes confused after experiencing trauma, especially prolonged trauma and doesn't know how to differentiate when you are in real danger and when you're not. This does cause the fight or flight response to be triggered more often than usual which leads to those anxious feelings and thoughts. You going to therapy to process this all is a great step toward healing. You got this mama!

I still am struggling with it feeling real and one day I’m going to wake up and everything will go back to normal. I’ve been struggling to get some grief counseling got my daughter and myself. It’s hard to talk about and y’all sharing your life really helps not feeling alone. Thank you queens♥️♥️

    I appreciate y’all taking that back because we are all learning and seeing it in a different perspective. We never know what people have gone through. We all have a past and we are all still learning. Traumas are real and sometimes be don’t even realize we have them until we are faced with it.

  • @mona8321
    @mona8321 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Can I just say… I appreciate the raw vulnerable moments that this podcast has. Karina made such a good point saying that one hour of bringing the walls down helps many people and I am one of them. I, too, have to put up a happy mask when I’m at work around others because like Mayra said, I don’t want to bring the mood down so essentially this podcast gives me the space to cry and relate with someone who also lost their son. 😢 holidays are hard but daily lives seeing other people live their lives is even harder. I appreciate these moments so much please don’t ever stop especially as you guys know people either 1) never reach out or 2) stop reaching out. I try to he understanding of others but most people won’t go out of their way to research how to be there for a friend but they’re quick to look up celebrity facts, etc. I’m over the excuses because it hurts.
    Mayra, losing a son changes you for life and I’m barley in my 2nd year in after losing Alan (6 y/o) to murder. Regardless of how you lose your loved one, human or animal, it scars you for ever and can nobody ever tell you how to feel unless they’re in your shoes.
    Edit: Mayra, I also experience PTSD after my loss. I always feel like I’m next. You’re not alone.

    Amazing! I love being a therapist for so many reasons but THIS validates the reason as to why I do it. To provide someone a safe place to process is such a beautiful gift. I grew up in a Latino household where we were not use to talk about our feelings. When I found out about therapy I was mind blown to understand their was a safe place to talk about my emotions and difficulties. I feel grateful that I found this career path and have the HONOR to provide a safe place for so many others. Thank you for being a lighthouse in this storm 💗

    Honestly this Ep. helped me feel like I wasn’t alone. Idk why but depression consumed me last week and I was so sad and unable to show up for myself every day. I thought “people are going thru worse, I shouldn’t feel that way” but you guys made me feel like it’s okay to express myself but I can’t stay there forever. I love y’all sm. Myra, I hope God heals & carries ur heart on the days when you need it most. And that u realize that your emotions are not a burden to those of us who genuinely love you girly. I admire you bc Grief comes in waves and you deserve the space to feel or not feel whenever you need ❤

    This is something I am experiencing and Mayra is the reason why I watch this podcast. I can relate so much with her and Karina is so supportive just like my sister. Thank you ladies for being so open and transparent.🙏🏼

    Omggg thank you so much Mayra for opening up. Like seriously what you are mentally battling with on a daily basis is exactly what I’ve been battling with for a year. You are really helping me with my mental health. You make me feel like I’m not alone 😣

    I love laughing & crying along with you guys! Don't ever feel ashamed of making us cry along. It's very therapeutic & not everything is flowers & rainbows. Life is real & life is hard, but that's what makes the good times that much more special 🖤🖤

    I love hearing Mayra talk about her feelings and pour her heart out. It makes me feel like we’re actually friends and I’m hearing my friend vent her feelings and be there for her even if it’s from a distance! I love it because I can see that she’s slowly healing and you’ve come such a long way. A year ago today you wouldn’t have been able to share your feelings this way and all of us are standing on the sidelines cheering for you girlie, we love you so much! chins & giggles and occasional tears lol we love it here ✨

    Mayra I can’t even begin to explain to you how much I needed this. My aunt passed away she was hit by a drunk driver. My uncle was hit by a drunk driver while crossing the street. My grandfather passed away suddenly with no cause. My father died unexpectedly and my nephew passed away a few days after birth also his death was unexplainable. This all happened before I was the age of 15. Now I am a mom of 3 boys and wife. I am terrified every single day if my husband doesn’t answer the phone or is a little late coming home I’m in full panic mode! I literally cry to send my kids to school and I feel sooo crazy every single day! I’ve asked friends if they ever feel this way and when they say no I feel like something is seriously wrong with me. I don’t know how to overcome my trauma so that I don’t ruin my kids and marriage with the amount of my anxiety.
    My heart needed this and I cried with you both. Thank you for this! I love you ladies!

    Trips to Disney are not an everyday thing for most people. I took my boys a few years ago & I had to save & plan for almost a full year. As a single momma I cried as we were walking in cause everything I had to do for this moment was so worth it. I can’t wait to go back.

    this is probably one of my favorite episodes (i love them all) but this episode i needed to hear so much. i recently lost my close cousin and hesitated on clicking on this weeks episode because i was scared it was gonna be hard to hear about traumas but everything you guys said about seeing peoples true colors and how people can be selfish is so true because im currently experiencing it right now. im so lucky to have a few girlfriends who check on me daily and make up for the rest. thank you girls for being so open and talking about these things it truly is helping so many of us going through the same. im also currently experiencing the fear mayra says about something bad going to happen so its nice to know its my brains way of coping with my recent traumas. love you girls and wishing nothing but healing for all of us this year 🤍

    Mayra, It’s so beautiful how you have taken us on your healing journey. Thank you for your vulnerability and for continuing to help others with your experiences. I know your son would be so proud of you knowing his mommy is healing and at the same time helping others. Karina, you have done a beautiful job supporting your sister and making it a safe place for your sister to open up about her challenges. What a blessing you are and a beautiful example of a loving and supportive family member.

    I can relate to you Girls so much when it comes to being a woman who lives with anxiety that’s the aftermath of trauma and also the empathy that I feel seeing these terrible things happen around the world. Thank you guys for covering these topics and keeping it real!! That’s why I love your podcast

  • @DemiJRA

    Oh my Mayra! You have me crying over here!! Karina your twin was so emotional hearing your actual thoughts, it just shows and solidifies how close she is to you...But thank you for this, now everything makes so much sense! When my dad passed in 2006 I remember saying this to my friends and they were so worried but I snapped out of it, now I understand I was 21 at the time.. I learned to just deal with that grief and have an amazing life now. but this just made me realize so much....

Thank you for being raw because it makes me feeel less alone

    @roxannesanchez5354 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mayra thank you. ❤Honestly you have no idea how much many of us needed this. The anxiety and intrusive thoughts are at times to much. I used to keep them bottled up inside but not anymore. Sometimes a good cry is all i needed in that moment.
    And yes many many of us are rooting for you💕

  • @VictoriaMartinez-ev2yx

    Thank you so much for being so open Mayra! ❤ I struggled with anxiety and depression for two years after finding out my son is autistic two weeks before I went into labor with my baby girl! I would think I was going insane and that people would think I was loosing it! Until I finally accepted that I needed the help and I just needed someone to sit and listen to me without judging me! This is absolute therapy to sit here and listen to someone that I can relate to! I’m so proud of you girly keep pushing mama ❤❤❤❤

    This was and is one of my favorite episodes you girls have made! It was a roller-coaster of emotions, but in a good way! Your venting, Mayra, showed me that I am not alone with the same thoughts I have in my head. Blessings to both of ya'll. Keep it up, you girls are really helping us all out.

    I have had trauma that people around me feel like i am being dramatic. The intrusive thoughts i have and the fear are so scary. Listening to this podcast makes me feel i am not the only one and I am not crazy. For someone reason I can't watch scary movies anymore because the uneasy feeling i get. I used to love scary movies. Then if something sad is on social media i have to skip it. I hope you feel a bit better. Take it day by day. Thank you for being you and opening up. .it is sometime hard to open up in this world
    🥰❤️🌻

    Mayra ❤! I want to tell you that I really appreciate you being so brave and talking about your feelings. Your emotions are raw and true and I can relate so fcking much. Yesterday I had a panic attack and it was an awful experience I was shaky and my heart was beating uncontrollably fast & my mind was preparing me to go. I thought I was going to pass away and all I could do was just sit there. It took me about 2 hours to come back to normal. Today I woke up still out of it and I just wanted to catch up on the podcast and I’m so glad I did. You are not alone in your struggles. We have different traumas but our bodies still react the same. We aren’t crazy, we are hurt.. trying to heal. Please don’t ever feel embarrassed to speak your truth, you are a vessel to help others in their healing while also trying to heal yourself. Thank you for making me feel like i’m not alone in my feelings. I love you both so much!

    Girl, thank you for being so open and vulnerable. I am dealing with a different type of grief but I relate to all you say. I grieve my old life. Yes I have happy moments but it’s always in the back of my mind. De el fondo de mi corazón te deseo to do lo bonito del mundo. I’m glad you exist.

  • @stephaniearlene3807
    @stephaniearlene3807 ปีที่แล้ว

    Mayra I literally have been dealing with this feeling and anxiety for 2 years now. It’s really scary man, it’s definitely something that stops you from being yourself to your best potential. Listening to others having similar mental blocks, makes me feel less alone and better about my situation. The world we live in, and all of what’s been going on only adds to our brains chaos, but know that you’re not alone. And letting others know about it makes you feel better. I know it’s helped me out, the reassurance from something other than my own brain is so helpful. DONT APOLOGIZE FOR CRYING. You’re helping me out too😢💗

  • @kissandra7162

We’re in our self healing journey. I’m also a very emotional intuitive person😢 thank you for being relatable , makes me feel like I’m not alone. I love you guys sm.

    Thank you for opening up Mayra it’s ok to cry, they say when you feel like crying it’s better to release it their at that moment cause it just makes you think and think more about what you were thinking! I lost my mom 9yrs ago and I hadn’t see her for about 3-5 days and it hurts me so much she got struck by a drunk driver when she was driving back home. It hurts me so much I was only 19 and had just gave birth to now my 9yr old but at that time she was only 2 months old I went through the scariest postpartum depression and at that time I had 5 younger siblings that I had to take care of till this day I think about something bad is going to happen when my siblings my husband even myself are driving I feel like someone is going to hit us! I’m so sorry I can imagine what ur feeling I will keep you in my prayers I love you guys so much and love your podcast, again release when ur crying it’s normal to cry, I cry with you guys!

    Mayra and Karina thank you for everything you do. I’m only 20 but through your podcast I learn so much about life about mental health you’re the older sisters I’ve never had since I’m the oldest in my family You’re both so inspirational
    You both speak on things I wish others could too like the good heavy cries that happened after bottling up
    I’m rooting for both of you 🌸🥹💖❤️❤️

  • @kathygomez8169
    @kathygomez8169 ปีที่แล้ว

    It’s so ok to cry thank y’all for wearing your heart on your sleeve cause I am that way too. After my mom passed away in a car accident. I’ve felt so much of what Mayra talks about. I go through the same thing with my husband. I prefer to stay home 100% rather then go out or even in public places I’m afraid that a shooter will come at any moment and though I get I shouldn’t live my life in fear it’s a part of the grief that I’ve had to deal with after loosing my mom the way I did. Before that I never really ever thought about it. After loosing Someone you look at life so much different. I feel like I live my life with so much more purpose now. When I can talk about it I always do because just like Mayra talking about her grief helps me I’ve learned that speaking about grief shouldn’t always be sad but more of a learning lesson for yourself and everyone around you. Like y’all said tomorrow is not guaranteed so remembering or reminding people to live life with no regrets is a super power we must use the time we still have to help others and continue to live life the best way you can.

    You guys need to know even if you talk about real life things, you guys are still making us happy and bringing our moods up. Because sometimes we have the same feelings but we don’t talk to anyone about it so knowing how you guys really feel is relatable that brings us up and makes us feel better ❤️❤️ I love you guys and I love everything you talk about no matter what is is.

    Wow!!!! Honestly thank you for the inside. This was great information, now I completely understand why I am constantly trying to prevent things from happening. This episode helped me understand myself and why I am in constant prevention mode. Trauma is insane. Girls it’s okay to cry, it’s the souls cleansing itself. Release all that energy, don’t hold it in.

    Hello queens, man this episode really got to me hearing Mayra talk about how she’s been scared when Brain leaves the house or how she feels she was going to die soon man that hurt me for her. I seen the pain she’s going through and how she’s trying her best to be ok and go on. Living with grief is the worst cause its a pain that will never go away and like Mayra says we cant talk about our grief all the time cause no one understands that pain only if u’re going through it. I love you queens cause u’s are so real and humble I love that about u’s please keep being that way and never change. I pray for you and ur family may God give the strength u’s need to keep pushing forward and know its ok to feel what u’re feeling. Thanks for talking about it cause I’m going through grief and just hearing someone talk about it thats knows how I’m feeling helps thank you.

I tend to shut down yet again you made me realize I AM NOT LOOSING IT.
