Healing from trauma is so difficult.. It was a long time ago now, the years have passed. But sometimes I wake up in the morning with a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes.
Sometimes it seems like it was yesterday. Sometimes a word, a gesture, a nothing is enough to awaken trauma. Then the insecurity spreads throughout my body.
Deep down I know that it is over, that it is behind me now. But my brain does not understand it. It feels the anxiety as if it were still there. My brain doesn't know the difference between the past and the present.
It relives the trauma as if it were happening right now. The impact of trauma is shaking hands, a ball in the stomach, A feeling of insecurity and anxiety that is uncontrollable and unsinkable even years later.
Traumas wreak havoc on the way of being, of living, of relationships with others. There are traumas that we have to live with forever that will never really leave us. We are built by their presence.
Every person lives with cracks and wounds in them.
Each wound tell a story that must be respected.
