“You were wired for connection—more specifically: authentic connection. You are meant to love and be loved. To give compassion, comfort, and acceptance, and to receive all of it as well.” https://t.co/ZLYERG8vap

🎒📚 Even though many schools have already started, the annual Back to School Tax Free Holiday is this weekend.

You won’t have to pay sales tax on a wide variety of items this weekend to help lower costs & ensure your kids have everything they need for a successful school year!

When someone leans into toxic positivity in response to our story and symptoms, it communicates to us that or pain— which we live with every minute of every day— isn’t welcome in this relationship.

[Gardner @VirtualGardner]

Is this normal for others?

[Dr. Glenn Patrick Doyle @DrDoyleSays]

We are not ourselves when we're triggered, we're not ourselves when we're in pain, & we're not ourselves when we're exhausted.

Don't judge or punish yourself based on what you thought, believed, or decided when you felt like garbage & couldn't think straight.

[Dr. Glenn Patrick Doyle @DrDoyleSays]

Trauma responses aren’t choices. We don’t sit down & calmly decide between fight, flight, freeze, fawn, or flop.

When we’re triggered, our nervous system makes that decision for us.

To all the counselors and therapists out there—we see you.

Whether you’re just getting started or have been a therapist for decades—this world is better because you’re here. So many people are getting the help they need because of you.
