I still remember a therapist giving me feedback that what I was telling her was traumatic, but my expression was flat and I did not display any emotion or feeling. This was all news to me.

The more I progressed in therapy and the more I read up on PTSD, the more I understood. I think it is a survival strategy we learn.

Good therapy, time, and my persistence made all the difference. My guess is that we each have a natural rhythm for our healing, at times we may speed ahead in understanding, dive deep in revelations, at other times we need to coast.

Good luck on your journey,
Sarah
