Me & my childhood trauma My lifelong story with childhood trauma has made me realize how wonderful life actually is.

I woke up this morning, around 2:00 am, in a cabin in staying at in the middle of a forest in Flagstaff, because I’m here for a horse show. I walked outside at that time to get some pills from my car, and looked up at the sky. I was in awe, I have never seen so many stars, constellations, I could even see the star cloud, that’s is called the Sagittarius star cloud....

To anyone who knows me, I believe you can say I’m a pretty cheerful person, but I do tend to complain a lot. I complain about the weather, I complain about not feeling perfectly right, I complain about just about anything or everything I can possible find, to complain about. While starting my day, this morning, I was listening to a new book, called “What’s it like to be married to me?”, by Linda Dillow, and in the very beginning of this book, she explains how every time the Bible mentions someone who is complaining or that is indignant in some way, it’s mostly the married women....

I know that a lot of the things I keep saying, may get old to some people, and I get it, if I had to listen to myself always talking about this trauma stuff, I would want to say, “just get over it”, and at times I do that to myself, specially when it ruins a day, or even a moment that I could have been thinking forward, or just living the moment without having to bring up my past....

I’m not someone special or different to anyone else out there, and sometimes I read books like David Goggins’ “Can’t Hurt Me”, or “The boy that was raised like a dog”, by Bruce D. Perry, and I think to myself, “I have nothing to be complaining about, my childhood trauma is so minimal, compared to that of these kids, etc.”, and I diminish my experience with my trauma and triggers, and I start to look down on myself....

The Window of Tolerance refers to the zones of arousal that a traumatized individual functions. The more hyperarousal or hypoarousal the individual experiences the smaller or more narrow the window of tolerance. Regulation and resiliency skills widen the window allowing a greater level of functioning to occur. The term was coined by Dr. Dan Siegel, from UCLA Attachment Research Center. …...

In life I have been through a lot of rough terrains, I’ve been in terrifying storms and had defending situations that eventually I walked out of. A couple realities have shown up for me: 1. In life, you need to be brave, being brave means not running away from your feelings, and noticing yourself within your thoughts. 2. Acceptance is crucial for our personal growth....

Life is hard and at times it really sucks, life has been overwhelming down right cruel at times. There were times I had no idea where I was going to put the next step, times that I failed to get out of bed, just because I was thrilled with so much anxiety, I wasn’t able to move. I recognize now, that all that suffering and all the time I spent barely surviving, was just preparing me....

April 28th 2024, my husband and I just got back from a wonderful trip to Guadalajara, Mexico, to visit my parents over the weekend. What prompted this trip, was an entire event all on its own, that happened on March 15th; during a long weekend filled with miracles in our family, I got motivated to write an email to my parents, where I described how I had recently realized that they had truly done the best they knew how to, as parents, and as wrong as they may had been at times, they had only learned to be parents, from their own experience as kids and how their own families had treated them....

Somatic Experience was developed by Dr. Peter A Levine, as he realized that the body is the one that carries all the pent-up energy, released by the body, when we face a situation that threatens our lives. While listening to an interview with Peter A Levine, where he explains how he came across somatic experiencing, I realized how many things that I suffer from, have been prompted by trauma energy being held in my body....

This post I believe, will ever be changing, because not only do I read or listen to a lot of books, I have a true connection to these quotes, and they produce a positive feeling in me, when I read them. This particular quote, by the creator of SE (somatic experiencing), Peter A Levine; is very deep for me, because for the longest time, I believed I was broken, I believed there was no way I could ever be better than what I was at that time....

You know, sometimes I just need to remember that everything can be changed, if I change the lyrics in my mind. You see, I’m not just an over thinker, oh no!,I have a great ability to create havoc in my mind. Whenever the stars align, and the wind is blowing in the right direction, and the birds are singing that song that just hits home, I am able to realize how much my thoughts matter, to get a different outcome....

I have decided to write this today, because amongst all the bad turns, wrong doors, and missed steps I’ve had, there’s a lot of good. The reason why I’ve become so passionate about these topics, is not just because of my experience with CPTSD, but it’s more because I believe that if I have been able to progress and change my ways, for a more positive and happy life; I don’t see why everyone who suffers from some kind of PTSD, couldn’t, therefore making this generation, a generation of positive change around the world....
