Do you ever get the feeling that the world is closing in on you? Sometimes, life can get so hard that we find ourselves crashing and burning all the time. Taking steps to admit, accept, and take action to get help is one of the best things you can do for yourself.
In today's episode, we'll be learning about:
· BREAKING DOWN THE STIGMA: It’s ok to not be ok and reach out for help from a therapist, counselor, or practitioner .
· WE ALL STRUGGLE AND COPE IN OUR UNIQUE WAYS: Sometimes it’s easier to deny we’re having issues, but when we “pretend” everything is ok, we not only hurt ourselves but loved ones around us.
· CREATE BOUNDARIES: Creating boundaries for yourself, friends, family, and loved ones is crucial to feel your best.
· EMDR: (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ) is a form of therapy that is extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders.
· YOU ARE NOT THE PRODUCT OF YOUR EXPERIENCES: Learning that you are not confined by your trauma and struggles can be liberating and freeing.
