PTSD Jesus and Me: You Matter, Worth Dying For (Substance Abuse)

Send us Fan MailOpioid addiction is more than an epidemic. It is a default mechanism for coping with trauma and emotional pain.  In this episode, Watson is candid about her own struggle with narcotic pain medication, and guest Crissy Loughridge joins the discussion bringing an important perspective from a family member.It should not surprise anyone that substance abuse and PTSD is a phenomenon that is well understood. Continuing the mission of dishing out Hope for those who's stories may look like hers, Watson dives into her story and ultimately credits the Star of the story as well as her community for TREATING THE PAIN, not the SYMPTOMS. This podcast is raw and real and should provide great Hope for those looking for it.  Hope is interesting that way, it likes to be caught.Want to know my Jesus?  Listen how here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xFBaE7DwGsor:https://www.fbcatown.com/sermons/he-lives/Dr. Charles Reedhttp://www.calvary.usDr. William RiceContact Me Directly At:[email protected] connect on social media:http://www.Twitter.com/amywatsonauthorhttp://www.facebook.com/amywatsonauthorhttp://www.instagram.com/authoramywatsonConnect Here: (Community)We are building an online community here:facebook.com/amywatsonauthor.comLinks and information mentioned on the show:"Dare To Be" Podcast by Natalie Grant and Charlotte Gambill"Speak Life" Toby MacEphesians 4:29 --New American Standard Bible"Let no unwholesome word proceed from your mouth, but only such a word as is good for edification according to the need of the moment, so that it will give grace to those who hear."#PTSD #CPTSD #MentalHealth #Trauma #NoMore #Hope #Jesus #anxiety #depression #MentalHealthMatters You ARE:SEEN KNOWN HEARD LOVED VALUED
