Feeling Stuck?
Have you experienced a significant event in your life and just can’t seem to get over it? Despite the best attempts to move on- the same patterns and feelings keep repeating. Feeling alone, you can’t really trust anyone because they always leave. Maybe you’ve numbed those feelings with food, drugs or alcohol but desperately ready for a change.
Trauma is connected with a loss of power and control. One of the most common difficulties with identifying trauma is understanding it will be different for each person. Some common symptoms associated with Trauma or PTSD are;
Anger and irritability
Nightmares, flashbacks and triggers
Difficulty trusting others and building healthy relationships
Low self-esteem
Avoiding crowds
Feeling on edge, guilty or shame
Sleep issues
Attempts to numb or dull symptoms through substance use
Codependency
Therapy can help overcome the past and break free from those patterns no longer serving you.
