Why Can't I Just Get Back to Normal After Trauma?

from Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher · host Maurice Harker

In this episode of the Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher, Maurice Harker tackles the difficult question many women ask themselves after trauma: Why can’t I just get back to normal? Through a powerful metaphor of being hit by a truck, Maurice explains the illogical expectations placed on those who experience emotional and psychological trauma, especially after discovering a partner’s betrayal. He emphasizes that healing takes time, and dismisses the dangerous idea that someone should simply bounce back or prioritize the feelings of the person who caused the harm. Learn how to navigate your own recovery, give yourself the space to heal, and avoid the societal pressures to minimize your pain.
