🚨🚨🚨 TRUMP & EPSTEIN ARE SEX TRAFFICKERS!!! And I’m gonna post this every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared.

Emotional regulation isn't always about being cool, calm & collected all the time. We can improve our emotional regulation & still feel plenty of passion & angst & excitement.

Emotional regulation IS about realistic tools for relating to our emotions-- without fear or disgust.

CPTSD doesn't care if we're "worthy" or "unworthy;" it's a nervous system injury that's indiscriminate in whose life it tries to ruin. Don't buy into Trauma Brain's story about why this is happening to you.

Just focus in on the next recovery supporting micro choice you can make.

Recovery from CPTSD does not require perfection.

It does require bravery.

But no one in the universe is as brave as someone who has survived long enough to be reading these words.

You can do this.

Trauma feels like it chases us down because, ultimately, all trauma is grief-- & grief does not decompose organically. It stays, hermetically sealed, until we face it, w/ compassion & patience & skill.

That is to say: trauma recovery doesn't happen by accident or time.

The person we pretend to be to please or appease others isn't going to recover from CPTSD by virtue of being able to present well.

We only recover from our authenticity. Which requires us to cease waging war on who we are & who we've been.

Recovering from CPTSD or DID requires us to get out of the habit of seeing ourselves through the eyes of those who abused us.

We are not who they saw-- if they ever even saw us.

We are who we choose to be & become. Starting today.
