Never Before Release Episode - created July 14th, 2022 Not your typical material when it comes to discussing CPTSD but I had a thought and I realized that there are songs out there I listen to that really does help me!  It gives me motivation, inspires me to see things different, helps ease my mind and can stir up emotions that can be very helpful when it comes to processing and identifying your trauma and improve the healing you're going through.

Original Airdate - October 8th, 2022 Dealing with CPTSD will never be easy, all the flashbacks, triggers, emotions and fears can be overwhelming at the best of times.  So having someone in your life, whether it's a close family member, or your partner can be so meaningful to you.  Now that doesn't automatically mean things are easier, no.  Our processing and healing is something that can only be done alone!  Your partner just won't understand what you are going through and the struggles we face daily, which can be extremely hard on any relationship and not everyone is cut out to be with someone who is suffering from CPTSD.  When we are fortunate enough to have that special someone who has an ability to show empathy, compassion, kindness and just BE there for you, it does make a difference in our lives!  They are amazing and we know how difficult it will be!

Never Before Released Episode - created June 22nd, 2022 I don't think anyone who hasn't experienced Childhood Trauma in their life can really grasp how hard life can be for a person dealing with CPTSD.  The triggers, the flashbacks, the pain and suffering it creates!  All the anxiety and stress not to mention what it will do to their relationships, careers, family, ability to enjoy the things many people take for granted.  Accepting the reality of what having CPTSD means for themselves is such a big part of the healing process, without that you will likely fail to make much progress.   Yes it's hard and yes you will face setbacks and days where you don't want to do anymore but know that you will be ok!  Stay strong and keep making the hard choices, you will benefit later on.

Never Before Released Episode - created June 4th, 2022 My CPTSD, along with my ADHD and Autism and now Anxiety has always played a role in my relationship with my GF.  We have had a lot of struggles in the nearly 3 1/2 years being together and it may unfortunately end up coming to an end because of it.  Even if I manage to get this under control and can heal it might be too late and this is very sad but it possibly could be for the better?   I don't want it to end, it's too good when things are good but lately there hasn't been a lot of good to experience...

Original Airdate - Dec 3rd, 2022 "Truth be told, the switch from grounded to triggered happens so swiftly and intensely, it's like crafting my own Fast and the Furious saga—centered on trauma and triggers! It's the disruptor in my harmony, the pesky gremlin in my life's machine, that one unruly student tarnishing the class for everyone else. Spotting the internal shifts to catch the triggers before they ignite unnecessary stress and anxiety? That's where the challenge lies, hidden in plain sight. And yes, it's all self-inflicted, a rollercoaster I'm navigating."

Deciding to move forward from a traumatic past is a monumental endeavor that demands immense courage, resilience, and self-awareness. Trauma, in its myriad forms, inflicts profound emotional wounds that permeate every aspect of an individual's life, shaping their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Each person's journey toward healing is uniquely nuanced, influenced by their personal experiences, coping mechanisms, and the support systems they have access to. In this podcast, we embark on a comprehensive exploration of this journey, delving into its multifaceted challenges, remarkable triumphs, and the enduring transformations it catalyzes.

I present an encore release of this podcast episode originally published September 10th, 2022. It's a nice and simple episode about Emotional regulation affecting our Self awareness. I have a very difficult time regulating my emotions when my stress and anxiety levels increase and it causes a great deal of issues!  Imagine having a bunch of children hanging around you, tired, cranky, upset, hungry, wanting to play, etc. Now imagine trying to have a conversation with someone with all these children with you..  You are going to have a difficult time talking to ANYONE when you are dealing with child parts, the emotions and behaviors of a child are basically the same as your child parts and they want to come online and take over and be like those same children hanging around your legs as you struggle to deal with the oncoming stress and increased anxiety you feel because of the situation you find yourself in. If you are not capable of regulating your emotions you will surely struggle to recognize the changes that are happening within you, mentally and physically.  Those who have emotional regulation issues will likely be poor when it comes to their self awareness and will fail to notice things like being triggered, experiencing a flashback and allowing your child parts to behave on your behalf instead of taking control and leaving the situation to process and return later.

It started 10 months ago with the first episode of this new podcast, trying my best to talk about the struggles and pain I have faced with my past relationship. All the ups and downs, just like a rollercoaster! There is a lot of progress that I've made since that time, definitely has not been easy and there have been a lot of triggers and set backs. When you begin to see the truth and feel what respect, dignity, compassion is like again it doesn't take long to become happy, safe and willing to take on the uncertainty of life. Want to Contact Me?

When we finally break free from the chains of our abuse we often want to try and find ways to heal in order to have a chance to feel normal, to feel happy and trust someone again. We all struggle and fail many times along the way, but when we experience growth as a human being after our battle with trauma it truly is an amazing and uplifting feeling, an experience that we truly do not want to let go of! It's so important for us as people who have suffered from CPTSD (Traumatic abuse) to grow and once again find out how true happiness, love, trust feels like inside of us! Want to Contact Me?

Here is an Encore presentation of my interview with CPTSD expert Tim Fletcher - On Today's episode on CPTSD I am fortunate enough to talk with founder of RE/ACT Tim Fletcher of Winnipeg, Manitoba who now resides in Windsor Ontario.   Tim Fletcher is the Founder and President of RE/ACT (Recovery Education for Addictions and Complex Trauma). He used his skills as a pastor and counsellor to develop this program to help the people he cared for overcome addiction. During his early years, he realized that everyone has a loved one who struggles with addiction, and many people struggled with unrealized addictions and unhealthy coping techniques. He found that 97% of addicts also struggled from Complex Trauma (C-PTSD). After researching C-PTSD which was identified as, “A series of events that occur where a victim feels unsafe, and as such, develops mental disorders which inhibit them from coping in stressful or harmful circumstances”, he concluded that research was showing that there is a physical difference between the brains of those who grew up in loving and nurturing homes and those who didn’t – before any addiction became prevalent. This was a really informative and extremely beneficial and educational opportunity for myself to learn more about CPTSD and I hope that you can learn so much more about your CPTSD as well with this episode! https://timfletcher.ca/ https://www.youtube.com/c/TimFletcher Twitter - TRAUMATIZEDPC.
