Past trauma

[TJacqueline]

Anyone else ever have something traumatic happen to them but can’t seem to heal properly ? Like avoid all the feelings

Yes, there have been traumatic events which I have gone through and they just never left me or were able to be healed within. It feels like you are living a life with a permanent scar. The more it is dwelled upon the more damaging it becomes among you. Look for the positive parts of your life and continue with that positivity as time goes on, and for sure, it will take you a long way. 😊

When I’m sick rundown it all comes up. Sometimes there’s no closure. Work on forgiveness for yourself because that’s what’s needed if it’s that scenario it doesn’t make it ok it makes it your choice to let go for yourself. The past can be tricky. That’s why living in the moment is so important mindfully. Sometimes look at it as keeping the lessons ( if appropriate) and not the scars. It’s easier said than done I know it’s a constant thing.

Hi TJacqueline,

Sorry to hear you have been through a traumatic experience. You have received some lovely, supportive advice from other members on here.

Everyone deals with events differently but have you tried talking about how you feel now and felt at the time it happened with someone?

I'm not sure where you are located but here is a link if you did feel that more support or just being able to talk to someone might help? There is also advice if you feel you want to continue dealing with it privately.

Anyone else got any advice or support for TJacqueline?

All the best,
