      Yes, thank you, really. Recently, I was diagnosed with a rheumatic condition. I was devastated at first but because of your words I managed to somehow see this as my body helping me to take better care of myself. Thank you, so much.

    This one was eye-opening for me. I didn't realize how traumatic my recent pregnancy had been until you talked about not knowing if you'd have the mental fortitude to get out of bed and take care of your children due to the pain you'd been feeling.
    I had a similar experience in my third trimester, my pelvis had separated and it was extremely painful to stand, let alone take care of my then 17 month old. I had family to help both me and my son. I internalized so much of my shame, guilt and feelings of worthlessness. I literally had to pause the video because I broke down in tears just remembering it.
    Thank you for helping me realize that I've been carrying this with me.

  • @KarnodAldhorn

    This reminds me of a ritual I came up with:
    I put my Fist on my sternum and say "Courage!"
    I put my right Hand on the left side of my breast (or vice versa) and say "Trust!"
    I then gently, slowly and heavily put my right Hand on my left shoulder (or vice versa) and say: "Calm(ness)!"
    What it means to me is to remember myself to have the courage to talk to others and not doubt what I want to say, to trust that others are there to help me, and to be calm enough to accept that I can sometimes just do nothing, sit back and keep silent, and wont miss out on anything.
    My sternum is in the front, out in the open, like Courage, my breast is where my heart is and my embraces happen, so it's for trust and my hand calmly on my shoulder really makes me calm because of the slight weight and reminds me to not act hasty and exhaust myself but to give myself a breather.
    It helps me a lot. Try something like that for yourselves, if you think this sounds good for you.

    @Ryan-ob6gp 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    but how can we help a loved one who's so deep in cptsd and so resistant to any kind of therapy that they refuse to consider it as the cause of their problems? I have a good friend who shows every textbook symptom, behavior and addiction for complex trauma and disorganized attachment who still lives at home at 40. Any gentle suggestion to learn about the condition, or mitigating videos like this is met with harsh defensiveness and a reduction in communication and earnesty. Extremely protective of her alcoholic mother's feelings, even while she can't be lucid and sober any day of the week. I know there's no magic pill or easy answer. It just sucks to watch.

    • @kobresia9
      @kobresia9 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Disclaimer: For some reason I assumed your friend's gender and used "she/her" pronouns (maybe because I'm a woman), and I'm sorry for that, but I have zero energy to correct my comment. Writing it kinda drained me mentally, because talks about traumas are triggering and therefore exhausting...
      I don't know if you still need help with that, but I'll try to give my perspective. I suffer from CPTSD, and I'm not a therapist!
      If I were to put myself in your loved one's shoes, I would say that I would not want to hear that there's something wrong with me. She fiercely protects her mother, and you see that as a problem and a manifestation of a mental illness, so instead of "my friend cares about me, he wants to help and is giving me resources for that" she could be interpreting it as "I've been caring for my mom for 20-ish years already, and for him -- my friend! -- that means that something is wrong with me".
      Another thing you should know about is "caregiver burnout", and also "caregiver guilt" which is often the part of the burnout. I'm sure you can find resources on these concepts, as you've already done a great job researching her symptoms.
      And to what you should do, and again, don't consider this a professional advice, so I'll rather say "what would I want you to do if I was your friend". I'd want to feel loved, supported and appreciated. I'd be definitely hurt if I would feel like you're trying to control me or shame me. If you say "I worry about you" or "you need help, there's something wrong with you" you'll always be met with great resistance. Instead just tell her that you love her, tell her how you are proud of her for taking care of her mother all these years. Tell her how strong she is, and that you see that it's so hard on her, but she's still going forward. Tell and show her that you're there for her. And try to forget about diagnoses and shrinks for a while, it will only make it worse. She needs to know that she's not alone, and that she's enough and loved, and appreciated. At least that's what I want to hear every time I'm hurting. I want to cry and be a baby, and to have a mother holding me in her warm hug. I want to feel safe as I've never felt safe, not really.
      You've already done A LOT for her. I would consider myself lucky, if you were my friend! And thank you so much for sticking around, I know it's not easy in the slightest. Take care of yourself too.

    ***Peaceful Disclaimer: I am simply sharing my thoughts, experiences, and observations. I respect anyone who has different belief systems.***
    There are ex-witches who have spoken about yoga. Please, be careful with the affirmations part.
    I myself speak the words that my God said I am in His eyes.
    For example, my God said that He leaves the 99 sheep to get the one sheep. He said that while I was a sinner He gave His life (God the Son; Jesus Who became Christ; Messiah; etc. on His names) to save my afterlife and bless me in this life as well as the afterlife.
    Now, I am curious to know of any other belief system which has their god speaking goodness about its believers.
    Just as was said, most all humans have gone through trauma and hope you all know you are not alone. Many have gone through a similar trauma, many are going through the similar trauma, and we all should hope (pray; wish) not others to go through any traumas.
    Something that helped me was clinging onto my God.
    Another thing that helped me was hearing or watching BTS videos and other Korean Pop (kpop) Singers.
    Other help was watching cat videos, reactors reacting to movies, reactors reacting to shows, reactors reacting to informational videos, mass food production, mass production of other products, learning a new language, going to the park out of state, hiking (walk/other), etc.
    Cats are cool to have as a therapy (emotional supportive). Even dogs or other legal pets one can have and it helps a bit to see how silly these animals are, but also see how curiously helpful/concerned or loving they are towards their owner.
    Like Mrs. Decker (sorry if I misspelled the last name) said, there are various ways to get through the trauma(s) one has gone through.
    Best of the future to you all💜🕊
    ***Again, Peaceful Disclaimer: I am simply sharing my thoughts, experiences, and observations. I respect anyone who has different belief systems.***
