Psychology Trauma

Late one night, while Rebecca Fogg was alone in her apartment, her hand was partially amputated in an explosion. Quick thinking saved her life, but the journey to recovery would be a slow one. As the doctors rebuilt her hand, Rebecca (who also survived 9/11) began rebuilding her sense of self by studying the physical and psychological process of recovery.

Whether trauma slammed your life with the staggering intensity of a natural disaster, childhood abuse, or the lethal silence of cancer or COVID-19, its impact can fuel ongoing confusion, anxiety, depression, helplessness, anger, and fear.

Monica DiCristina suffered for years without words to describe the pain she was experiencing inside. Without knowing what was behind her anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and fears, she created other names for them: “not good enough,” “unworthy,” “messed up,” “wrong.” Through the slow process of coming to understand her own story and find the accurate names for her pain, she discovered a glorious path to healing, and also a calling to become a therapist and help others in the same way.

Esta obra ofrece una nueva y esperanzadora visión del trauma. Nos muestra al "animal humano" como un ser único, provisto de una capacidad instintiva para sanar y también con una mente capaz de aprovechar esta capacidad innata. El Dr. Levine se pregunta y responde una cuestión muy interesante: ¿por qué los animales salvajes que suelen estar amenazados constantemente casi nunca quedan traumatizados? Comprender la dinámica que permite que un animal sea prácticamente inmune a sus síntomas, nos permitirá descubrir el misterio del trauma en los seres humanos.

Lebenskrisen kann nur überwinden, wer ihre Ursachen versteht. Verstehen führt zu Veränderung – das Unverstandene müssen wir immer wieder aufs Neue durchleben. Doch was bedeutet es zu verstehen?

Up to 90% of adults in the US will experience one or more traumatic events in their lifetimes. While most who suffer a trauma naturally recover over time, for others difficulties continue, and may lead to full-blown depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use, anxiety disorders, and other problems that interfere with healthy daily functioning. Making Meaning of Difficult Experiences is a self-guided mental health resource for people who have had potentially traumatic experiences and who wish to work through them independently, outside of a formal therapeutic setting.

At the time she chalked it up to his love of detective novels, but it didn't change the fact that her father had always been someone who made her anxious. Two years later, in 1995, Melissa's father was arrested for the murder of eight women over a period of five years - he was the serial killer known nationally as the Happy Face Killer.

Trauma is a negatively life-altering event or ongoing situation that affects us in mind, body, and soul. As Bessel van der Kolk’s (2015) famous book title tells us, “the body keeps the score.” So does the human brain. Trauma, even when the event or situation is long in the past, can haunt us.

We are hurting, we are lashing out, we are struggling. Our children and parents are also struggling. What if you could heal completely–physically, mentally, spiritually? To again be WHOLE… to live and love life again? What if you could heal and grow into your true and authentic self? The person you were meant to be before you experienced trauma.

Healing from trauma is a testament to the remarkable resilience of the human spirit, and it underscores the significance of persistence, time, and a committed effort to engage in the necessary work. Trauma recovery is not a linear process; it requires a patient and persistent approach. As individuals navigate the complex emotions and challenges associated with trauma, the passage of time becomes a crucial ally.

Many people believe grieving is only something we do when somebody we care about dies. But there are many other reasons why we grieve. Smaller but similarly serious sorrows can include the loss of a job, a broken relationship, unmet expectations, frustration or disappointment because of failure, and so much more. Two other subjects will also be discussed in this audiobook. The first relates to handling PTSD in your marital relationship. Another topic heavily emphasized in this audiobook, is what’s called “survivor’s guilt”.
