How can a mum be proud of the fact that her daughter has gone through such a traumatic and life changing ordeal such as fgm thats just ludicrous and sick people who believe in fgm need to be educated about the consequences of fgm so that they understand just how dangerously harmful fgm is
A family's honour depends on it what about the girls honour what about her rights don't they matter girls have the right to a safe childhood nobody has the right to steal anything from a girl don't let religion blind you no to fgm
Because I have a brain I understand what an alarm is without having to hear it go off! How can I even focus on-let alone believe-what you’re trying to say if you don’t understand that many of f us don’t want to hear that noise?

Testimonies from both employees and patients resonate with the success of these approaches, showcasing how trauma survivors can find hope and recovery. Dr. Tonmoy Sharma's tireless advocacy for those in need amplifies their commitment to ensuring that individuals suffering from trauma can access the expert care and support necessary to reclaim their lives and mental well-being.
Fgm is a depraved and perverted way to force girls to grow up growing up is all about having a mature attitude about things it's not about subjecting anyone to trauma without their consent childhood is about innocence and about protecting your kids from harm it's not about neglecting your responsibility towards your kids you're meant to protect your kids from harm if you don't want to shelter your kids from dumb things like fgm don't have them
This hits home so much is hard to watch, the kid's clip were really relatable, i feel better to know more but also sadder to face those things. The most elucidating part was "the perspective creates the trauma" reminded me stoicism too and made me want to hit myself for forgetting. Excellent production, just so good, one of the most important videos ivee saw.
If following the logic in this video, a victim of a serious crime: rape, assault or witness to a murder is in a permanent state of trauma - how can they then claim that the victim ( or witness) would be able to sustain any questioning, no matter how "trauma informed" the questioner approached the victim? I feel this "trauma informed" approach to serious issues may very well be the work of the psychology grifter industry. According to the overarching logic being pushed by the government "experts" - we are all "trauma" victims? I also found the portrayal of the police officers patronising, the aging, balding man with his fractionally more enlightened female colleague using terms like 'sciency". What we've come to expect from the parochial Scottish Government, more public money wasted on theories without any clear benefits to society.
Fgm is the most pointless and the most moronic horror that any insane person can do to anybody else whoever carries it out needs to go and have some intense psychiatric treatment
Or with prolonged abuse from when you’re very little and your amygdala is in its first stages of development, and it doesn’t form correctly, causing constant states of reactive fight or flight (Even when you can’t cognitively remember the abuse), or BPD.
Sara was pretty lucky to survive when she told the midwife about being circumcised as a child in Kenya and got the professional help she needs to protect her daughter from fgm.
One trama I'm having is I know the ppl around here. Talking about Gerald always. With the lipo suction on stomach. They really need to stop I see it I hear it. They can fuck off no authentic ppl
Id rather suffer shame and rejection by my community for not gettingmy daughter cut if i was a mum then lose my daughter to the demonic practice of fgm
This is an excellent video to introduce the concept of trauma. I couldnt find fault with it. Ive seen too many videos on trauma with errors. Errors that can cause harm to people who have PTSD/CPTSD. Well done.
I was standing on a flight line in Vietnam, on duty, fully armed, when rockets started exploding all around us. Only a few, so we gathered ourselves and took cover in case of a ground attack. Nothing else happened. Ten days later I couldn't keep food down so I went to sick call and got looked at. I didn't know at the time that it was PTSD and didn't know till 1996, when the VA used the sick call visit to confirm it was the rocket attack that was my trauma event. Because PTSD and trauma attacks the digestive system as well. I have Barrett's esophagus today and still have esophageal spasms from it to this day. I didn't get help till 1996 when I was taken to the VA, they really can't do anything about it I learned. They paid for two degrees for me thinking it would solve all my problems, it did nothing. I was even homeless once with two business degrees. At this date 54 years later I am totally and permanently disabled by the VA and SS courts. As I watch this video I still have many of those symptoms. I have learned to stay alone and listen to by body, it tells me what I can and cannot do.
I grew up with a controlling mom, was constantly bullied at school, and was married to a person like my mom for 41 years before I left the marriage. I have been triggered for the last couple of months and had a meltdown last week. Watching this video is very helpful. I now understand myself a bit more. Thank you
This has been my major problem caused by years of trauma from abuse. I always freeze and when I freeze my brain does to and I could not think for the whole day. Thus, it made me immobile even when I have lots of things needed to do as an adult. But I got help from Sovereign Health, they knew wht they were doing the programs helped my mental being and me to be able to react properly on situations where I used to just freeze and shut down. Truly helpful to get help from proper treatment facilities.
Thank you for this video. It helps me understand alot of why I am like I am from my childhood and adult trauma. I'm finally at a point in my life and I'm getting help.
I had a recent event that flashed me back to teenage years when I was bullied… my nervous system went into complete shock, felt like a lightning bolt hit me, I have had migraines every day since and neck tension. This has been the worst thing I have ever gone through…. I am trying! Every day is a struggle.
