How do we heal if we don't have that and never really have had it?  Trying to navigate mostly on my own and without much support unfortunately.

@victortarin3449

Exactly, and that’s what I do not have. So tough.

Dr van der Kolk thank you for your work...may i add also that wiyh PTSD a core issue is that the traumatic events which induces PTSD changes your UNDERSTANDING of the world which is why it has a profound effect on overall cognition. I have had PTSD for 18 years and have analysed this issue for most of them years and i now know that it is because the events affected and changed my UNDERSTANDING of the world....the traumatic events changed my understanding of the world to a horrible cold place and it was only when i realised i have to change my understanding of the world through new experiences that teach the world is a secure place (the new experiences have to be stringer than the trauma events though) that the PTSD started changing. PTSD is a virus on our understanding of the world, what eradicates it is feeding new experiences that change our understanding from a trauma based one to a secure based one.

@jadedruir8700

Is a center where are doctors which treat trauma seriously in Switzertland and Europe? Thanks in advance.

@kinglion5435

Always on point

@elara2498

I would appreciate a treatment option for when you have no one

@karlashoultz3157

I appreciate Dr. Van der Kolk’s work. He is brilliant. Most therapists go for the easy for them and put you in meds, then it becomes addiction, so they are the ones that mess you up. This is in for humanity.

@anandateertha7865

and that set of people to take care of you is yourself. Nobody is going to take over our responsibility and responsibility of our  wellbeing.we have to own it .

Everyone who doesn’t have someone and a family to take care of them listening to this clip, is thinking, oh that’s good I’m totally fucked

@lnalvarez1661

If we want a different life, we have to be willing to do something differently. We have to take risks that make us uncomfortable. Start by attending church. NOT for the people but to meet the savior who can change us from the inside out. Once we begin to change and become spiritually, healthier, we naturally attract healthier people

@Oldpucker

And when they don’t……..you end up like me .

@gingerrivas5354

That is my problem, no one is there for me. Only me and i dont have a lot of basic

@ATREASUREOFGOLD

So so true

@theinsomniac10

If someone caused my trauma to re ignite the memories of my old trauma. How should I respond?

@camipockets

My experience of life experiences totally shifted after I came to understand this! Thank you for this!

@ddt7

i think my significant other resents me....trauma sucks and some people just don't know how to deal with empathetic people

@punyashloka4946
