The difference between PTSD and CPTSD PTSD is a singular acute event that overwhelms a persons ability to cope causing their brain to shift into survival mode, with the amygdala (threat detection system) becoming overactive while areas responsible for safety and reasoning struggle to regulate fear. This can lead to flashbacks, hypervigilance, avoidance, and intense physiological stress responses. It’s as if the nervous system keeps reacting to a danger that has already passed. CPTSD develops from prolonged or repeated trauma, often occurring within relationships where escape wasn’t possible — such as chronic abuse, neglect, or ongoing emotional harm. Instead of one overwhelming moment, the nervous system adapts to long-term danger, reshaping how a person sees themselves, others, and the world. Just like the piece of paper their identity is molded and slowly chipped away until they don’t recognize themselves. The trauma becomes woven into identity and attachment patterns The difference is that PTSD is sudden while CPTSD is from failures in systems Share to your story if this resonated 🔁 Follow for more ❤️‍🩹 @djweeks_ #cptsd #complextrauma #ptsd #cptsdawareness #traumainformed

An emotional flashback comes on suddenly and can mirror a panic attack. It’s your body remembering a past experience without a visual attached to it. Instead of seeing the memory, you feel it, shame, fear, abandonment, or helplessness flooding your system as if it’s happening right now. You may not recall a specific event, but your body is responding to something it has lived through before. A visual flashback is more sensory and memory-based. It involves seeing parts of a traumatic experience—images, scenes, or moments replaying in your mind. There’s a clearer connection to a specific memory, and often times you retreat inside yourself Both are deeply distressing experiences. Both can make a person feel pulled out of the present, however, emotional flashbacks may be more intense as waves of emotions become supercharged It can be very hard to ground yourself during a flashback because the logical part of your brain gets turned off, and your body enters a state of survival, however, here are some things you can do 1️⃣ Sit in a shower and hug your legs or place an ice pack on your chest 2️⃣ Say out loud this is a flashback, this will help create distance and reorient yourself 3️⃣ Be intentional with your breathing and make your exhale longer. Breath in for 6 and out for 8 Share this to your story if this resonated 🔁 Follow for more ❤️‍🩹 @djweeks_ #flashbacks #traumatized #traumaresponse #cptsd #complextrauma

Tips in caption ❤️ Everyone dissociates but not always to the degree of a disorder. Think of dissociation as a spectrum, where on one side we have things like zoning out, mild day dreaming, imaginary friends, imagining future scenarios and on the other side we have depersonalization, derealization & dissociation disorders. This can also look different for other people When you struggle with dissociation it is important to bring yourself back to present moment. This isn’t always easy but things such as ice, cold water, dancing, shaking, giving yourself a hug, gently pinching / touching your arms & legs can help. Essentially, you want to try to engage your senses. It is also helpful to remind yourself that dissociation has been a tool that has kept you safe & what your body and mind deemed best in the moment. Judging yourself for this will not make it easier. Safety affirmations can help as well “I am safe” “Everything in this present moment is okay” ❤️ Ib . . . . . #mentalhealth #anxiety #trauma #unhealedtrauma #depression #stress #ptsd #complextrauma #cptsd #selfhelp #selflove #motivation #procrastination #wellness #therapy #therapist #mentalhealthmatters #socialanxiety #bpd #bipolar #dsm #adhd

To heal trauma, stop fiddling with the effects. Get to the cause and the effects will take care of themselves. You heal trauma by being aware of your sensations without resisting it, fixing it, changing it, wanting to make it different, or doing anything about it. That method I just described above ☝️. You can use it at home to heal your trauma with nobody around. Go sit on a chair or lie in bed. Start focusing on your bodily sensations around your belly and chest area. I'm not talking about emotions. I'm talking about sensations. When you do, everything you've supressed and repressed are gonna start coming up. When I first did it, I felt lighter and more present. I knew instantly that It worked It's not something new or foreign. It's an innate ability that our bodies have to heal. Try it, then come back to comment and let me know how it went. Get my book for free in my bio You'll get better results when you feel your sensations around people. After a lot of time avoiding and suppressing, I realized that it didn't work. It keeps the trauma stuck inside your body. It stays the same or gets amplified. It's basically you staying in survival mode. I got in the habit of feeling instead of suppressing. It's like a reflex now. It definitely adds up because because this is how I started getting out of shutdown and survival mode. This is how I got out of numbess and freeze. This is how I got my social skills back and started becoming my true self again. Allowing/being aware of your sensations is what signals safety to your nervous system. When you feel, instead of repressing, you show your body that it doesn't need to shutdown. Resistance is what signals danger to your nervous system. When you resist your trauma sensations, you're telling it that they're dangerous. Any experience/sensations you turn away from, your brain-body registers as dangerous. So, avoidance really isn't the way. Get good at feeling your sensations, and you'll get the results and healing you're after. You need to titrate your sensations around people. 🔗Tap the link in my bio to download my e-books where I walk you through how to get good at feeling your sensations to heal trauma.

The inability to recall childhood memories is a common experience for survivors of childhood trauma and narcissistic parents 👇🏼 When children are living in a home that is high stress, the body goes into fight or flight and the brain prioritizes survival INSTEAD of memory processing. The amygdala (threat center) becomes highly active, while the hippocampus (responsible for organizing and storing memories) becomes less effective. This makes it harder to form clear or coherent memories in the moment, hence, childhood is one big blur ☁️🌨️ If this information feels like it hits home (literally) you’re in the right place- follow along for more trauma informed insights from a therapist in NY AND SC 📍 #nyctherapist #therapy #traumatherapy #complextrauma #childhoodtrauma

If you’re a complex trauma survivor, you know this all too well. We get really good at imagining Love that is not there. We do this because we had to hold onto that our parents or significant other cared about us….because the ladder is too catastrophic What does this look like? We might only see the good in people and rationalize bad behavior, we might see simple acts of kindness as someone being into us, we have a hard time pulling away even when something doesn’t feel right, and we may struggle with limerence. All of this can feel like navigating dating to be a battlefield, we may feel doomed if we try to enter a relationship but doomed if we stay alone. That’s one of the greatest things complex trauma takes away from someone is accepting heathy love Struggling to navigate dating after trauma?

You heal trauma by feeling/being aware of your sensations. Get very good at feeling your trauma sensations and you'll get the healing and results you're after. Allowing your trauma sensations is a response that signals safety to your nervous system. Trauma sensations/pain can only be opened up to, watched and validated. They cannot be manipulated, evaluated, hurried or changed. When they get the attention and time they need, they are able to complete their healing mission. Traumatized people who remain in the sensing mode without engaging their thought processes feel a release and an opening; their attention then focuses back on the external world. You'll be able to sense this shift in yourself and know that healing has taken place. Simple awareness is key to healing trauma. I'm not talking about introspection here. They don't have the same meaning. introspection is a directing of our attention in a deliberate, evaluating, controlling and, not infrequently, judgmental way. Introspection, while often valuable can in itself become interfering, taking us far away from the here and now. On the other hand, awareness is the spontaneous, and creatively neutral, experiencing of whatever arises in the present moment whether sensation, feeling, perception, thought or action. Trauma just wants your attention. You just have to open up yourself to it, validate it and just watch it. It actually feels freeing. So, it's not about being in your head evaluating, wishing it would go away. That's resistance. Everything will change for you when you change it from "how can I get rid of this" to "how I can be with this"? From experience, there are only benefits to feeling your trauma sensations. You just have to learn how to feel your sensations. The work is about feeling your sensations, instead of avoiding, suppressing, and repressing. This is how you discharge/dissolve trauma energies. This is how I started going out of shutdown, survival mode, numbness. This is how you go back to your true self and get your social skills back. Resistance is what signals danger to your nervous system and what keeps the trauma stuck inside your body. 🔗 My ebooks are my bio.

Are you lazy or are you stuck in freeze mode? Full disclosure: I was stuck in freeze mode for the last 6 months. Getting out of it isn’t easy, but it’s important to start slow & focus on one day at a time. Freeze is a coping mechanism we develop as a way to get through challenging or traumatic experiences. Freeze is often a response our body enters as a way to protect ourselves from feeling the pain and suffering. Some therapy approaches believe that in order to exit freeze you have to enter into a fight or flight. In every case, you need to find a way to get back into your body and ground yourself. Some tips include: - Reminding yourself that freeze mode has becoming a coping strategy for survival- this is not a sign that you lack strength. - Slowly getting yourself out of isolation, connecting with your support system even if it’s starts with a text message or phone call - Bringing yourself back to present moment, you can use ice or cold water to do this when you’re dissociating - Reconnect to your environment- go for a 5 minute walk or get outside if you can - Try to identify your emotions even if you’re struggling with feeling them (refer to my last post on how to do this) - Being awareness to your senses in moments you feel dissociated - Breathing & relaxation techniques - Co-regulation with a loved one if possible Ib christine.coen & megjosephson . . . . #mentalhealth #anxiety #trauma #unhealedtrauma #depression #stress #ptsd #complextrauma #cptsd #motivation #procrastination #wellness #therapy #therapist #mentalhealthmatters #socialanxiety #bpd #bipolar #dsm #adhd
