Sexual abuse trauma and life after your safe

Yandapanda1998 April 27th, 2021

Does anyone ever feel like when your safe that feeling to safe or to happy is not safe. Like i guess im not used to it all the time still. Its like without even realizing it i start drama or i purposely trigger myself because im so uncomfortable with happiness and being safe. Its still so new..... My mind freaks out when everything goes well. Does anyone know how to stop it from happening or how to even notice it in the moment and let the happiness stay and not start drama?

Hi yanda, I suggest you chat with the listeners on one on one sessions. This will make the conversation deeper. Try to communicate with a listener who had a similar experience so that they can relate. P.S I hope your peace and happiness will be a lasting one

It takes a lot of self repair to overcome that my friend. When we are subjected to hostile environments over long periods of time we adapt to that environment no matter how hostile. You can take the person out of the hood but you cant take the hood out of the person. I say this in regards to myself because I was raised in a very bad environment. As I got older I would have negative behaviors when things were going well just to prevent anything else ruining the moment. It wasn't until intense self reflection that I saw the root cause of my suffering. We have to learn when to let go. I don't like letting go of anything, but I have learned that when riding this rollercoaster called life it's ok to let go of the bar and just feel the wind on our faces. It took me years of self improvement to get past that tendency but it can be done. We also know there will always be cause for drama and we all have our moments but at the end of the day we are all in this together. If you ever want to talk about this subject in further detail, feel free to message me my friend. I will respond as soon as I am able. Have a wonderful rest of your day!
