fascinating approaches to CPTSD
- some approaches i’m familiar with, some i’ve only day-dreamed about haha.
- would love to approach conversation in a Nathan Fielder’s “the rehearsal” way lol. gave me some sold things to bring to my therapist when i have one. made me reconsider the way i interact in conversations.
very informative, kept coming back to the body and physiological responses to trauma, as the title suggests.
- lots of information regarding generational trauma and how it effects people of color.
- i was particularly intrigued by the
rat study about generational trauma
truly moving and hopeful.

Definitely make sure you read content warnings before reading! While I know this is realistic because it is a retelling of the author's experiences, it can be a bit shocking to listen-especially if you resonate with some of the experiences.
