Nothing feels safe.
It happened, and now, everything in your world is different.
It’s painful – frightening. It shatters your sense of security and makes you feel helpless in a dangerous world.
For a while you thought if you could just keep going, you’d “get over” it. You’d break free and be able to move on with your life.
Whether it happened a long time ago or recently, you’re still struggling with overwhelming emotions, memory, and anxiety that you can’t seem to overcome.
You’ve lost control.
Trauma can have a lasting impact on your mental and emotional resilience.
Exhaustion, confusion, sadness, anxiety, agitation, numbness, dissociation, or physical arousal – all are common responses to the traumatic event.
It can make you feel as though you can no longer cope, as though you can no longer face or control your emotions. And, untreated, it can affect your overall sense of self.
And you may not even realize why.
Trauma is a visceral emotional response to a terrifying situation.
You may have suffered from violence, injury, or accident. Or you may be dealing with chronic situations such as bullying, a life-threatening illness, or a dangerous living situation.
Or you may not even realize the cause, especially if it took place when you were very young.
Regardless of the cause, it can be devastating and can infiltrate every aspect of your life.
