[@ttaewlll]

[@jjm559]

I love Gabor mate ❤pls give him a Nobel price award 🎉 he has helped so many of us

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

YES!!! We agree! He deserves a Nobel peace price indeed!

Hey Gabor, thank you for making a difference. My daughter Rebekah aka / Becksbt worked as a mental Health worker in Vancouver and I went to visit her last year and we walked down Hastings and I still have these images printed in my heart and in my mind. She left on leave because of the overwhelmed and PTSd. She is such a beautiful soul and finally wrote a book #behind sky’s eye which is a fiction with truth. As here mom living in Montreal, I would love for her to connect with you. She is better today but th support system is lacking for these workers. Sending you love and light. 🙏

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

We can imagine how impactful that work was.Please tell Rebekah she can tune in to our classes for free on Zoom any time too. We would gladly welcome her. ❤

I so enjoyed this book. I found it after ending a 24 yr marriage to a man that has now come out as gay. His yrs of addiction relapse/recovery I came to understand would probably be my downfall in my own health. Most thankful for this profound info & it is spot on. I’m grateful for my self care mentally,spiritually @ emotionally. My anger did save my life. Ongoing education is my salvation. Blessed 💪🏻👍🏻

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

We can imagine how difficult that must have been. Thank you for sharing. If you're ever in Miami please join us and if you're not- reach out to us and we can give you access to our classes via Zoom. :)

Thank you, Dr. Mate & Hope4Life. And to kitty Mate for volunteering your assistance to Daddy Mate to remind everyone that non-human animal companionship is also a well-proven, successful treatment for our woes & illnesses, and that seeing a “shark-fin” cat tail floating across the screen once in awhile is one of the best dopamine hits.😄😊🥰 May all beings, human & non-human animals, and our dear planet be free from suffering & given all the rights & care necessary to aid in this. ✊🐾💚

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

Thank you! And yes - animals are so wonderful!

[@peacefulisland67]

So grateful Gabor mentioned that typically traumatic events don't have to result in traumatic wounding. People can and do face outrageous disasters and still come out whole due to their spiritual foundation and quality of relationships. Folks having gone off to war can go home with or without PTSD and addiction. Some can drop addiction right away, which to me means they weren't trapped but in a holding pattern of protection until they could get to safety and familiarity. Perhaps their foundation wasn't quite set. Point is, relationships are what direct our orientations and attention. Help whomever is on your right and on your left without picking and choosing. No one will be left behind including you.

[@through.a.barrel.she.breathes]

He is very amazing.

[@peacefulisland67]

By the time physical symptoms of trauma show up in ways that others can discern; can see for themselves plain as day, that is the indication that those suffering need help from their communities. Symptoms are a red flag outside of ourselves as a failsafe for assistance! I no one does intervene, not only will the initial individual suffer but so will those who turn a blind eye whether through ignorance or willfulness.

[@bettina.davalos]

I am pleased to know the change is coming

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

It's happening every week at Hope4Life in the lives of all the people that attend. It's a privilege to witness!

[@bettina.davalos]

How do-treat trauma

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

In many ways - but definitely with counseling alongside being in a healing community. Are you in Miami?

[@gaiadance]

Can someone please explain to me why a psychiatrist would tell me they dont believe in ptsd when in relationship with a young man potentially with psycosis canabis induced

[@Hope4LifeMiami]

We are sorry you were told that. It doesn't sound like very wise counsel.
