Let it be Relax Who cares? Only you Take it easy. Slowly, let's not Rush Pace ourselves and time.

Very helpful. My mom was traumatized when her mother abandoned the 7 kids when she was 7. She did the same thing to me. ALWAYS, over and over. She was MEAN. I always felt bad about myself. This channel has helped me move OUT of the TRAUMA RESPONSES.

Oh no, I missed your live broadcast! Glad to catch the video now though.

Nice to catch up Tamara ( sorry but you tube notification bells is suck and keep missing your live chat) but as Carl J. said “ even a happy life can not be without a measure of darkness, and the word HAPPY would lose its meaning if were not balanced by sadness.” I learned that the hard way as I’m now recovering from cPTSD from (escaping narcissist or sociopath ) relationship. I have been put on disability pension and I felt that my life fouled apart. But now I have 18 months recovery behind me and life is slowly coming back together. There are days were I think that I will never get there but other days I feel that I’m going forward. I’m palliative care RN by profession but now I’m at home. Tamara do you think that I’ll be able to work again? I miss my work. God Bless you Tamara ❤

Thank u so much for staying up & sharing your time with this team. I have fam who strangely wants to be apart of my life. Because of them I had decades of hell & now they want to be around me. I truly want nothing to do with them. I find it funny!! When I felt like I needed them I nor my children were important enough to hangout with them or be invited to their affairs or functions. I built a life with JESUS, my husband & my offsprings. Those ppl broke me down & JESUS picked me up. They can't stand the fact that JESUS has Blessed & Highly Favored me!! ❤❤❤❤❤

you covered so much that applies to me. I really appreciate the insight from the community. Thank you

Thanks again Tamara for another wonderful lesson. What's fascinating is that I've identified I am in good company with your community. I can relate with everyone on the chat board, and everything else you talked about. I feel for everyone here!

The description of this sounds like exactly what I & others close to me could all benefit from so I already shared with a few select others. Ty & blessings all! 💕🙏

It was interesting for me to note how you stated that your clients can struggle with their decision-making skill. Which is why you'll offer to assist them in this area of life. I have also noted that another lady i know , who runs a support network for a group of people who are escaping from within a cult, said that she also finds that one area of expertise they'd need assistance with is within decision making too. Just like how you've also made it clear that its likewise your own experience as well. And yet i know how ive spent a whole lot of my own lifetime (ie: up around 60 years) in attempting to describe these exact same symptoms to doctors and assorted mental health professional they'd sent me to see here over the years here within our health system , and yet ive never felt as if i'd actually been believed. Ive never felt like im believed. I've long felt as if the people from our health department here are acting towards us as if they'd feel we must be only imagining that we struggle more with decision making than what other people will. And sometimes they'll even go so far, in attempting to deny the validity of our claim to this symptom by pointing out how there's always going to be some people who'll naturally be smarter and better at making decisions than what others would. As if to say, its actually nothing out of the ordinary "at all". Which is like they are denying your claim automatically. Are glossing over the hell on earth you might have experienced. And meanwhile it can also create a situation whereby we will even start to "double question ourselves" about whether we are simply insane & mistaken in our feelings surrounding the disability. So i personally found it comforting to hear this theory being put forward here by a health professional with loads of experience in this field of mental health support.

I don't feel broken, damaged yes. I have been through a lot, my whole family is toxic, my Mother even tried to have me certified insane in an effort to control me. My current counsellor thinks she had Munchausen by Proxy. How on earth do I process my own Mother did that to me? I have no family support, theres no love, a bad, bad situation. At least I have a lovely wife and a few solid friends.

tuning in fpr the first time and i enjoy your positive energy on getting connected audibly at the beginning. Staying tuned to hear your content. Thanks for this topic praying for clarification in my new journey. thanks in advance

Tamara is a Godsend

Thank you for all of your work and I'm sorry that you've been dealing with a concussion, that's very serious. Your recent videos have been especially helpful and interesting. I feel like we're on the precipice of a cultural shift -- we are beginning to recognize trauma and abuse and hopefully be kinder to ourselves and understand others, too. It will take a while, but I feel like it's happening. I've been lurking but not commenting because in a chat I snapped at another commenter who was saying things about their foster child that I took issue with. It was a surprise, I don't typically take issue with other commenters in chats, I'm an adult, but I think the high emotionality of the video made me feel vulnerable and I was surprised by the person's venting. Lesson learned that even an old dog can get her fur up.

You save people ❤

Thank you 🙌🏾

Thank you 🙏
