It’s easy to get sucked into terrible relationships with people who treat you badly, especially for people who were mistreated and neglected as children. You may find yourself with narcissists, manipulators, liars and people who just plain grind your spirits down. But so long as you stay hyper-focused on what’s wrong with THEM and what THEY did - the more you may come to see yourself as helpless - and the longer you may be participating in the sabotage of your own future. In this video I respond to a letter from a woman with CPTSD who has not yet learned to take charge of her healing and her life.

@priscillawrites6685

Thank you for all you do here. Especially removing stigma from C-PTSD diagnosis and symptoms.

@smartypants6198

I wish I had a therapist like you. Peoples lives would improve

@pdelaprimm

What I long for is a tribe, real peers.

The realization that your life isn’t just things that happen to you but decisions you make when you’re busy making excuses for other people that keep you stuck… it’s huge. You have SO MUCH POWER and those people want you to think you don’t. Telling yourself the truth and standing up and walking away and never going back… it’s the strongest action and YOU CAN DO IT.

Anna, this was an excellent example of how those of us with CPTSD build a web of continued trauma. Sad to say this situation mirrors my own(no children). Thank you for shining a spotlight on the unhealthy choices I’ve made and the struggle to get free of my own web.

❤Sending love and hugs Naomi. I completely agree that your child doesn't necessarily need healing,

@purplehue434

Absolutely loving the tough love. It’s not just for ‘Naomi’, it’s for us too. ❤ Thank you!

@Hammondchris

Anna's one of THE few people who I am more than willing to accept tough love, and appreciate

@niinatakkula4851

I hope she is able to receive this message. It often is missing in the narccisist victim culture, which could in it's worst foster black and white thinking, victimhood and unnecessary fear. I can understand many of her decisions, and it has been a painful road for me too to accept that I do have to take responsibility for my life, even though things could be so unfair. And that I too have hurt people with my actions, and the worse - haven't always been a perfect parent. I don't know if her native language is english or not, whether she understands what the word baby means. If she does, the way she describes her child many times as "my baby" leans towards enmeshment, and I hope she is able to get help for herself so that she could get her needs met from a helping adult.

@multilingualmind778

what an excellent insight! thank you Anna!

@SurvivingOutHere

Thank you for the tough love Anna. I needed it today ❤

@JamesSavik

I remember a friend telling me I was like a whipped puppy- too willing to forgive and go right back after a bad spanking.

@jaetracy8539

Do you ever receive updates from the people who write in? I am genuinely curious about Naomi’s growth over time.

@MrMark28

For those of us with CPTSD remember to try your best to find a psychologist that has background/ study on trauma/ abuse. Many of them can let you just talk and take a little too long ( for my taste) to get somewhere.
