@supermoongirl9 Being a Scorpio Rising with a 12H stellium makes me do everything alone, but I'm so secretive that nobody actually knows I'm doing a lot by myself. We, whose usually do all by ourselves, don't actually share that we do all by ourselves. Hard to get a compliment this way.
@milkstrology By understanding the person we are is the best version of ourselves that we could become with the resources we were provided to and also understanding that it's never too late to become whoever we want to be. We need to give ourselves a chance time to time.
@MoonInvincible I'd date a Taurus Sun, but dating a Libra Moon is completely out of possibility here. There's no way I repeat that terrible experience.
@supermoongirl9 Can we talk about how hard is to let people take care of us when Saturn in on 4H? Damn, really, it's exhausting doing all by ourselves without letting anyone help us as much as exhausting is letting someone help us and feeling weak and miserable right after.
As a psychologist, I’m really trying to bring my voice to this.
Over my career, I’ve seen many people with (natural) complex traumatic stress responses from (unnatural) environments. Yet, they’re not taught to understand their behavior as adaptions. Even worse, their trauma is often invalidated. Or told it’s part of a “normal” childhood. Without awareness that what’s normal in culture is highly dysfunctional and sometimes destructive.
It’s clear we are suffering. It’s time to stop pretending and denying.
Complex trauma is not recognized in the diagnostic manual. It’s so important to give people self understanding and hope. To know that there IS healing.
There’s more to life than diagnosing and telling people they have no agency over their lives.
We have a collective issue we don’t talk about.
We have adults who:
-can’t build healthy relationships
-who please so much, they abandon themselves in the process
-who are filled with anger and repressed rage
-who sabotage their partnerships
-who continue to go into cycles of stress and chaos because it’s all they know
-who feel so depressed and overwhelmed for VALID
-who are so hypervigilant and overstimulated they’re stuck in survival mode
Please educate yourself. Advocate for you, your family, and your community’s health. Use the resources in this video (if you’re called) to start your healing process.
May we break the generational cycle.

@Theholisticpsyc I'm dealing with all of C-PTSD mentioned in this video. Kinda hard to stay grounded when all your mind want to is to disappear. I wish there was an easy way out.
