The (Complex) PTSD Guy

The choice to discuss your own trauma is a big deal. I share why I think a lot of people don't do it.

Important to remember what are triggers are, and not give in to them by giving up when things don't work out.

Importance of finding something uplifting to engage with. Personally I recommend listening to a choir, going to a theater production or seeing a stand-up comedian. I will say be particular and make sure it's not just noise or foul language. Make sure there's quality in it so it will enrich you if you feel broken.
