I dated a guy who said he had PTSD from past experiences, he told me I shouldn't talk about politics because it was a heavy subject and it triggers his trauma, I was like "Do you seriously think you can sensor my speech because you have trauma?!" I was thinking if you have trauma from a past relationship then why seek a new relationship?!
The exact reason why some trauma victims choose NOT to heal is exactly because of that: they NEVER want to be attractive because they believe that is exactly why they were traumatized in the first place.

Mark, very true. However, my body has been saying lie down and rest for months now. Saying that, I am experiencing traumatic events in an ongoing way too...

Many of us are rounded, hunched over to protect our heart. Being leered at as a kid walking to school, abuse at "home"..... Moms help your daughters with basic dance who want to rise up and enjoy life! Thank you
I used to appreciate his take on things, but now, I see that his hypotheses have been stepping stones to my different understanding of thiaga from how I made sense of things before. I now see how short sighted Maté is presently.
OMG you were so rude to Kristin !!! and saying things like "I think you're mixing politics with science"...says someone who obviously has not studied science and thinks its totally devoid of social and cultural and political influences as if this thing called "science"exists as some utlimate objective truth. If you mean there is some biological imperatives or determinants in making "women more compassionate than men"on average and that something in our biology might lead to certain sex differences,...thats not the same as science",which is a methodology and grounded in cultural norms and values. Kristin handled your rudeness very well I think and was much more skilled than you I might say. Convincing your "conservative clients" of things about privilege and how men and women are socialised differently and how maybe their ideas of masculinity and what it is to be a man are not simply grounded in their biology but it social and cultural beliefs is also "political"..its just that YOUR politics you consider to me more "scientific"
absolutely! she handled that douche like a pro-- shes probably handled a LOT of toxic masculinity over the years-- LOVED when she mentioned data that supports her point.
Thank you for this. Currently struggling with burnout and self-compassion seems to be a key aspect to healing. It often feels like weakness or self-pity to have self-compassion, but I realize that I am often my own worst enemy when it comes to self-criticism and self-shame and acceptance and compassion for ourselves and our struggles is an important practice.
As an israeli married to a british citizen who'm I live with in Israel and searching to leave the country asap I am so upset about this visa requirements! It is comforting and sad to hear more people battle over this visa! It is already easier to live in many other countries but we would like to live in the uk due to his heritage and culture
