Great read, thanks for sharing this with us Julie. I am also a cptsd survivor that finally switched his thinking like you did 3 years ago. Ive been on a journey toward recovery since that time and it’s not easy, but i can see the world differently now. Im nowhere near totally healed, but i now know things can be better with time and self work. Good luck to everybody suffering like us, and lets not stop talking about mental illness.

Thank you for sharing Nadine! Generational Trauma and it’s long term effects and pressures is certainly something that we can shine a light on. I’m happy that you’re aware of and addressing that aspect!

I adapted to childhood trauma within the roles of Super Hero and Golden Child; groomed to cover up my parents’ root of buried shame, compounded by that of many generations past. (Initially, I was cast as the Scapegoat before they recognized abilities which were exploitable.) “Falling apart” was inevitable, for my coping mechanisms had an expiration date; so that the root generational shame can be addressed and healed.
