-behaviour

-career
-relationships
-time
-energy
-mental health, and more.
Every religion has the potential to cause #religioustraumasyndrome. #psychology #cults #coercivecontrol #abuse #exchristian #atheist

It is immensely satisfying to see clients open up to life & experience their own Aha! moments. In addition to providing a safe space for them, I get to share what I’ve learned & thereby pass along parts of myself. It is a beautiful & powerful exchange. Ready to explore & grow?

196 followers · 1586 posts · Server mindly.socialI wasn't prepared after leaving the #Cult on how painful and truly "complex" living with #CPTSD would be. (Living in an abusive relationship for years with a "deprogrammer" didn't help). Now, there are times I have to move forward in fear, with all my will, when I'd rather stay in my comfort zone. Sometimes bad feelings are tied into certain repeated events that ultimately have little to do with the current reality. But they feel real. #Healing #ReligiousTraumaSyndrome

1344 followers · 935 posts · Server mas.toMDs, psychiatrists, & psychologists must learn about #ReligiousTrauma & #religioustraumasyndrome in order to have a broader view of issues which present like #DID , #bipolardisorder , and #borderlinepersonalitydisorder . This will be my topic at the 9th International Trauma Congress in Amsterdam this summer. I am very #nervous about addressing MDs because I don’t have a medical background - but the topic is too important not to share. I hope it is well accepted.

#cptsd #ReligiousTrauma #trauma #religioustraumasyndrome #brain #emotions #education #mentalhealth If you were raised in an #authoritarian religious environment or high-demand group, this may resonate with you. In August I am speaking at the 9th International Trauma Congress about how #RTS is often misdiagnosed as #bipolar disorder and/or #borderlinepersonalitydisorder and may also present as #dissociativeidentitydisorder.

It’s time to think & #reason as an adult, holding all beliefs to the highest scrutiny. This is especially needed for beliefs that require #magicalthinking . #science #reality #ReligiousTrauma #religioustraumasyndrome #criticalthinking #adulting #growth #mentalhealth

Regardless of flavor ( #exchristian, #exmuslim, #exjew, #exhindu, #exmormon ), the big recovery issues focus on #grief & #loss of identity, community, & worldview. Additionally, there are often significant gaps in knowledge & experience with sex, science, & secular/pop culture. It takes tremendous courage to examine foundational beliefs. If you're making the journey: WAY TO GROW!
