“I have travelled through madness to find me.”
That’s how it feels when you’ve experienced trauma.
The anxiety attacks.
The broken sleep.
Always wondering if the other shoe will drop.
The surges in emotions.
The terror and the fear.
The unexpected triggers that catch you unawares.
The times when you go crazy.
The times you cannot feel.
The dissociation.
The unreality.
It’s a terrifying journey
You think will never end
But eventually it eases and you find yourself again.
Well written, thank-you.
Through the trauma, I have found a stronger, much more compassionate and empathetic self .
God has a purpose for everything. Let us keep trusting him, and the opportunities that he gives us to help bring healing to others. 🤗

This hits close to home because of family who deal with anxiety. Loved ones are continually filling their half empty cups with patience, love, and understanding.

I’m glad you are there for those family members. It makes all the difference in the world when you feel someone is holding you when you are really grappling with anxiety. God bless 🙂
