I am a struggling person looking to form (or find) a serious support & crisis network with others focused on dealing with serious life struggles! As there is a severe lack of options for some of us on that.

Mental health question
Is it a thing in #cptsd recovery to relive different stages of your life for days at a time?
I've processed a lot of early childhood stuff the past couple months, but for the past week I've felt like I did much of the time age 10-14: numb, depressed, listless. It's like my brain doesn't know any other way to exit childhood.
Actually, I think it's a side of me that was dominant in those years and is coming out again, for whatever reason.

Poem by: Jullian H (AKA Gray, EigenGrai, basically me)
The Pain of Perfection
In shadows cast by whispered blame,
A sixteen-year-old bears the shame,
An aunt and uncle, cold and stern,
In their harsh gaze, no love to learn.
Left on Christmas, a heart so bare,
By a mother lost in her despair,
He walks on eggshells, seeking grace,
But finds only scorn in this lonely place.
Kicked out at night, the world feels wide,
An hour later, they pull him inside,
Forty-two hours, no sleep, just dread,
Haunted by words that echo in his head.
A few jelly beans, a simple delight,
But Easter's joy turned into a fight,
“Your cousin’s dreams, you’ve ruined them all!”
He stands there trembling, feeling so small.
In a house that feels more like a cage,
He searches for warmth, but finds only rage,
Perfection’s a burden he cannot bear,
In a world that says he’s never quite there.
So he wanders the night, lost and alone,
A boy with a heart that’s turned to stone,
In the pain of perfection, he silently weeps,
For the love he craves, but never keeps.

"In this conversation, pediatrician Tanya Haj-Hassan discusses the profound impact of the ongoing conflict in #Gaza on #children, highlighting the psychological #trauma and physical injuries they endure. She emphasises the importance of humanitarian aid, not just in terms of medical supplies but also in providing emotional support and a sense of normalcy."

Some comforting words for a #Sunday for all #activists out there, from Dr #GaborMaté. He posted yesterday on the concept of "moral injury", as we are bearing witness to the #genocide in #Gaza #Palestine. It resonates all the more that Maté is himself a #holocaust survivor and #trauma specialist. Have a good Sunday everyone!

Self-reflection on childhood trauma
I am deeply disturbed when I witness cruelty or torture of any kind. Especially when the victims are unable to protect themselves. I go into a kind of shock and feel powerless in such situations.
Similarly, I feel deeply troubled when someone takes pleasure in the misery, misfortune, or pain of another.

I’ve been thinking about healing—not just the kind that scars, but the deeper kind.
Is it when the memory softens? When you stop rehearsing the story? When your body no longer braces?
Maybe healing isn’t a destination.
So how do we know we’re on the right path?
What are some signs you’ve noticed along the way?
