The weight of childhood trauma and a toxic relationship/marriage is taxing on the body . As a parent I tried to provide my kids with as much stability as possible while coping and navigating my issues. All my energy and effort was for my kids. I think self improvement was beneficial in raising my kids and I didn't want them to suffer or feel empty like I felt as a child. I believed nurturing my children and showing a genuine love helps them have a better self esteem and they hopefully wouldn't settle for anything less than being loved and respected. Our background plays a huge role in the way we live our lives and raising kids with love and guidance can spare them from poor decisions and dysfunctional relationships. I am always going to be a work in progress. I am so grateful my kids were able to grow up with more balance than I had. This information is so beneficial thank you.
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt story. It's clear that your children are lucky to have such a caring and thoughtful parent guiding them. . It's inspiring to see how you've used your experiences to create a better environment for them.
I really believe my type 1 diabetes was caused by my many childhood traumas when I was just 6. I'm still fighting the disease and I don't know if anything that I do can bring back the days when I didn't have this disease.
I lost someone with T1D and have been researching this topic. I don't see any conversations on the connection besides general connection to autoimmune diseases. The person I lost had an ACE score of 8 or 9 out of 10. Got diagnosed at 30. It really makes sense to me that this was a result of adverse childhood experiences. I'm wishing you all the best in healing your traumas.

No, you can still love someone, but know your own boundaries. That doesn't change the fact that you love them. Having boundaries is healthy and needed, so you don't burn out or loose yourself in the other person.
I've watched a bunch of your work and I've found it helpful, it's nice, pleasant, to hear someone relate to and help me to understand the experiences I had, and am having,. and will always have. Thank you very much.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts! It's a common concern, but there are success stories out there of people who have experienced healing and improvement. Keep exploring and stay positive!
Depends on what kind and how much trauma you had to endure. In my case, I believe I suffered functional brain damage from the first 16 years of abuse and neglect, which is not reversible.
What promised to be an incredibly insightful sharing was jarringly marred by the annoying and insensitivities of the interviewer, interjecting at crucial moments. You're in the presence of someone great, willing to share his personal story, and you do such disservice by interrupting and turning it into something mundane and mainstream. Such a shame.
