Ep. 3: CPTSD and why therapy isn't always enough. Ok, we get it! Our parents did the best they could already! AND....we have CPTSD.
**This is a driving episode: not driving as in hard-hitting, but driving as in I’m actually driving while I record. It’s where I think best.**Yes, our parents did the best they could for the times they were in. AND a lot of us came out of our childhoods with complex issues of unexpressed pain, compressed autonomy and aspects of our denied emotional lives that are still stored in our bods and wreaking havoc on our goals. In this episode we talk about why therapy is only part of the picture of healing and the origins of CPTSD: EMDR, religious trauma, codependency, addiction…oh my!Pete Walker’s book on CPTSD is the bomb. Find it hereI share stuff about my own CPTSD, how easy it is to be in denial and to breeze over feelings I never actually felt. I also talk about the core principle of developing in community and the importance of trust.Modern therapists are focused on co-regulating us and that could be a problem for those of us that never had someone angry on our behalf.My website: krisadams.meMy writing: krisadams.substack
