We’re too quick to tell a traumatized person that it’s their responsibility to heal without considering what has been taken from them.

Acknowledging the limitations of our early support system isn't about trashing anyone-- it's about realistically understanding the conditioning that still affects us, whether we think it "should" or not. Don't get up in your head about "blaming" them. You're trying to understand.

The people I've known who died struggling with addiction didn't give up ...
They died because they were beaten down by battles that no one could see or understand ....
The gateway to addiction is trauma. 💔

Are you out of touch with yourself? Have you refused to understand your WHY? Why you have certain trauma responses? Do you shut down and get high rather than work on your own toxicity? Then please don't waste my time. #cptsd

A very common experience of CPTSD survivors who are really working our recovery is that we have an increasingly hard time connecting w/ people who are not doing their own recovery or shadow work.
We just no longer have bandwidth for people who aren't willing or able to be real.

Trauma survivors often dissociate not just because what happened was awful-- it's also because we tend to be self-aware & sensitive in ways many don't understand. It's hard to pay bills & make breakfast when you're acutely aware of how tragic & beautiful every second & breath is.

Working our CPTSD recovery-- specifically, the "setting boundaries" part-- will, by definition, shrink our circle, either a little or a lot.
We're programmed to resist that-- but, as we get healthier, we realize: a smaller, more authentic & reliable circle is better. By a lot.

As we recover from CPTSD, day by day, we often realize: we cannot exist in the world our family constructed & inhabits. We need to leave that world, & the person we were in it, as far behind as we can.
Much of recovery is giving ourselves permission to just stop trying w/ them.

Not all hurt people, hurt people. Some of them remember how much it cost them and couldn’t imagine putting someone else through that.

Telling a traumatized person “You need to let it go” dismisses the reality of their nervous system and body. No one wants to relive traumatic experiences on an ongoing basis. People are triggered by past trauma because they’re traumatized, not because they’re unwilling to let go.
