I really needed to hear this. I alternate between my head ruling and my heart ruling. Dr Snipes in this video says it will probably take at least a year to get to a better place mentally. I don't have a need to be in a relationship, I'm actually at my happiest when I'm not. The problem is that men seem to like to reel me in with false promises and then I become emotionally dependent on them. All I know is I will put up with any amount of crap just to not lose them.
But no more. At some point I found where I left my self respect. It's like a hyper puppy that keeps wanting to escape, but I have the leash now.

Question for those with #ComplexPTSD who were able to heal, to any degree. What pushed you to get help (whether therapy, support groups, self help, etc)? If you had that feeling that you weren't worthy of help/happiness/healing and that you deserved to suffer, how did you fight that feeling to start on the path to healing?
How long did it take you from realising you had #CPTSD to being in the right headspace to do something about your own wellbeing?
What is EMDR?
https://www.bacp.co.uk/about-therapy/types-of-therapy/eye-movement-desensitisation-and-reprocessing-emdr/
“Someone can tell you that your negative belief about yourself is not true, but you need to know that for yourself. With EMDR, the change in perspective comes from within and the transformative changes feels true at a gut level. There can be a remarkable change in how people feel, from feelings of terror or shame to calmness and empowerment.”

Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here.

Sharing an early music video of mine, since I haven’t shared my music much on here and it’s #TransMusicMonday
I make music as a #Queer & #ActuallyAutistic / #Spoonie #IndependentArtist with #ComplexPTSD ( @actuallyautistic )
This is my Burning Mind MV.. Burning Mind is my first EP, with three instrumental songs.. which is why the music video is almost 9 minutes long.
Somewhat inspired by the way The Lumineer’s set up the music video for The Ballad Of Cleopatra, with multiple songs making up the music video; each with their own scenes.
Here is the video:
