We’re all traumatized, and we all need compassion and healing. Thank you for raising consciousness. I always want to learn from Tim Fletcher.

Anthony DeMello famously said: “The first thing to realize if you want to wake up is that you DON’T want to wake up...” Our somatic programming DOES NOT want to wake up (aka: deprogram). Instead of listening to and believing the resistance/repression - which can look like feeling stuck and dysregulated, among other things - we can just expect it. Here’s just a few tricky ways that repression can show up in our experience: 1. Nervous System Dysregulation 2. Addictive Behavior 3. Anxiety and Depression 4. Chronic Pain 5. Compulsive Enemy Making 6. Chronic Self-Doubt 7. Brain Fog and Confusion 8. Bouts of Self-Hatred / Self-Attack 9. Isolating and/or Withdrawing 10. Choice-less Approval Seeking and Giving Our Power Away to Others 💚

I am so grateful for you teaching me how to live a bit better everyday.

Senior abuse in retirement communities and how it exploits and manipulates the “family box”, agencies and then channels up to government paying out to ruthless, calculated bleeders of finances from the unknowing public. I could write a book myself. It has so much to do with TRUTH. Emotional abuse causes stress and the stress causes, in my case, adrenal failures. I must listen to this over and over it makes so much sense…thank you

[@emilydawson5384]

This particular video really covers a lot that has not been easy to discuss in my personal CPTSD background. Thank you for bringing all of these to light and discussing them. I have a lot to unpack in therapy later....

[@billmiller9145]

Trauma and Recovery, was hands down, the most triggering book I ever read. Tread lightly with this book if you're new to the Recovery process.

[@Charity-vm4bt]

Thank you for advising about this book by Judith Herman. I think she writes for clinicians. Perhaps her book doesn't advise treatment modalities.

[@Annii_Oakley_]

Damn. Just found that book at a second hand store… I’ve got it next to the couch in the read list… I’ve got nine years but… that warning sounds legit. Maybe I should pass…

[@frv6610]

Mr. Tim is THE psychologist

[@Bealtaine947]

So idendentifiable for me in every aspect of this talk. Thank you you for you're teachings.

[@Charity-vm4bt]

Excellent.

[@Taurusboy07]

You are absolutely brilliant. I am so glad I that came across your channel. Thanks for speaking about this.

[@kf4722]

Thanks for the new format. It’s easier for me to listen to. I had a difficult childhood with a military family. They yelled and were loud. It still causes anxiety for me when people are loud. I will catch up soon! TY 😊

Parential alienation , is a Big trauma hurts many, in each single case

[@Charity-vm4bt]

Parental alienation seems to be basic and fundamental for many who were victimized.

[@J_L45]

Thank You 🙏 for uploading this. ❤

[@DaveE99]

Succes as being always in your sympathetic nervous system. Dang as an FA attatchment who I learned we often have the freeze response conditioned out of us. We can still shut down but the flip side is like fighting to fix to caretaker to be good enough to be accepted. Or at least that’s my adhd complex trauma experience ce

[@Halfpynt71]

That's what I'm experiencing with medical trauma. Pharmaceutical companies are just being slapped on the hand as so many of us are disabled for life because of their products.😢

[@Me-fs5mi]

Have no contact with abusive drs. Seek better, alteratives.

[@cherylschumaker1366]

​@Me-fs5mi it's hard tho , but I understand what you mean

[@Beccaboo739]

What do you mean by equitable system? Do you think all laws should be egalitarian? Do you think everything should be 50/50? Would we be able to judge that by equality of outcome? Just trying to understand your perspective on this because of the things you have said.

[@saraz9017]

I experienced this trauma when the government forced a medical treatment onto us!

Is there no part 16 or 17?

[@user-bn2st5kx8h]

They dont need to decide is jst that noone demands change .they only realise its unfair after they become a number on the system

[@Rose-246]

Political trauma is really bad right now, horrible!

[@cherylschumaker1366]

Big time but always has been ,so we are generational condition in most part....So often we get the responses to just accept it or get over it type of deal...to get along ..if if it's all consuming...

[@susie5254]

I'm confused about one thing you said. If a man should be judged as being stronger than a woman in the case of rape, does that mean that women are not equal to men?

[@Charity-vm4bt]

Add a primal level, women are not equal in physical strength. A look at the data for child trafficking worldwide reveals natural physiological inequities.

[@Yousually_Me]

I do believe females are just as equal as men on this subject; just hasn't been documented as much in public 😅

[@DaveE99]

Men have more testosterone and more muscle mass as a result. That is what that’s about. Dosent mean they can’t be codependent or anxious attatched and a door mat their own way and suffer from various types of traum.

[@rickp.6251]

Affirmative Action?

[@headshot8888]

Politics follow a changing culture. Our western culture has become completely disfunctional. Separated from truth and reality. This has happened before. Over and over again. There is always a scapegoat. It's going to get ugly. Just like the home I grew up in. My violent anger has been triggered to the boiling point again. There is no political solutions to these problems.

[@Charity-vm4bt]

The political system is often the perpetrator. We all could probably give examples from our own lives.

[@supercoffeebean]

Name one legal right a man has that a women doesn't have in the U.S. today.

[@Charity-vm4bt]

C. And D. In his list especially exploit females and children.

[@DaveE99]

The abortion ban stuff is kinda nuts. Like I’ve done endless research on how people work on all levels of understanding ,and there is not really evidence that things like pro-life are actually about saving lives. At least at the group level. It’s more a mating strategy designed around being reactionary hierarchial defense activists that litterally every single position at the group level they have across history lines up with defending the hierarchy and also often about punishing out groups that threaten their cultural world view that they use to buffer their terror management theory death anxiety. And so to buffer the anxiety, they need to fight and impose on others in order to feel safe. It’s messed up. And don’t get me wrong, I get much of that red pill stuff too about how women function. or at least the EP stuff, and yet this thing is still nuts.

[@becca1461]

I have loved this entire series until this video. You’re actually bordering on sending people who are in an unhealthy emotional state (AND YOU KNOW IT) to go protest. This is HIGHLY irresponsible as a medical professional!!! I have a formal diagnosis of CPTSD and have been with the same amazing therapist for 11 years - I don’t believe she would ever give such ill and unhealthy advice!!! Do better!!!
