I never thought about opening up about my own childhood trauma. It was interesting after listening to a podcast, I remembered her saying “everyone has that inner child who responds to trauma which causes you to have anxiety as an adult.”
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!I never thought of that until I started noticing what causes me anxiety. First, crowds causes me high stress anxiety because when my oldest was 4 years of age, I lost him in a mall located in a nearby city. The feeling of losing my kids and feeling that feeling, even though I found him… the trauma is embedded in my body. it honestly doesn’t leave and my oldest is 21 now and I still remember that feeling after all those years.
I am slowly working on new techniques that help me regulate my anxiety. I also heard of the “5,4,3,2,1 method” which is when you start counting when you first notice your anxiety levels increasing. I honestly have a bad habit of vaping because it’s my outlet when I get anxiety. However, I’m interested in trying this new technique to get my anxiety under control after years of harmful therapies.
I will definitely share my findings, & I’m looking forward to sharing out my findings! Everyday we have a choice to either remaining the same, or choosing to be better!
The legal stuff: I am not a licensed doctor or a professional therapist. I have lived all my life with chronic pain, and with symptoms from Chiari Malformation T1. I speak from experience and from research that I have read throughout the years.
